PCI Audio Accelerator

The CS4624 is a high-performance, 128-pin, PCI audio accelerator. With the added legacy compatibility modes, the CS4624 enables real mode DOS compatibility within PCI-only audio subsystems. This device, combined with application and driver software, provides a complete system solution for hardware acceleration of Windows 95™ DirectSound, DirectSound3D®, DirectInput™, and wavetable synthesis. WDM drivers provide support for Windows 98 and Windows 2000™, and XP™.

The CS4624 is based on the Cirrus Logic Stream Processor (SP) DSP core. The SP core is optimized for digital audio processing and is powerful enough to easily handle complex signal processing tasks. The SP core is supported by a bus mastering PCI interface and a built-in dedicated DMA engine with hardware scatter/gather support. These support functions ensure extremely efficient transfer of audio data streams to/from host-based memory buffers, providing a system solution with maximum performance and minimal host CPU loading.
