(http://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=3061.0) Since the chip generates tones using ROM wavetables, it is perfectly possible to generate other sounds with different rom code and data. Most upd17XXX devices are typically 4bit NEC MCUs, however based on information in "Electronic Speech Synthesis" by Geoff Bristow (ISBN 0-07-007912-9, pages 148-152) the upd1770/1771 is not one of these 4-bit ones. The uPD1770/uPD1771 SSM is a 16-bit-wide rom/ram mcu with 8kb (4kw) of rom code, 64 bytes of ram (16x16bit words addressable as 16 or 2x8 bits each, the remaining 32 bytes acting as an 8-level stack), 182 instructions, a complex noise and tone internal interrupt system, external interrupts, and two 8-bit ports with multiple modes allowing for chips to operate as master or slave devices. SSM stands for "Sound Synthesis Microcomputer". People who I *THINK* worked on the uPD1771 and what part I think they worked on: Toshio Oura - Project Lead(?), VSRSSS/TSRSSS speech synthesis engine (on upd1776C), master/slave i/o controls, author of bristow article and primary author of the IEEE article Hatsuhide Igarashi - Clock oscillator and pad layout, coauthor on the IEEE article, other IEEE stuff Tomoaki Isozaki - ? (senior NEC engineer?), coauthor on the IEEE article Sachiyuki Toufuku - ?, coauthor on the IEEE article Tojiro Mukawa - IGFETs and the DAC M. Sakai ? - digital filtering for VSRSSS? (IEEE 4131979, 1169295) M. Endo ? - digital design system or speech synthesis? (IEEE 4069656, another? person: IEEE 150330, 225838) H. Aoyama ? - logic design system used to assemble/lay out the chip? (IEEE 1585393) I. Fujitaka ? (no IEEE) Eiji Sugimoto - cpu design? 1156033 1155824 F. Tsukuda ? (no IEEE) N. Miyake ? switched capacitor stuff? (IEEE nnnnnn) The uPD1771 internal workings are described to some extent by the Bristow book and the IEEE article "A Single-Chip Sound Synthesis Microcomputer" which complements the book and are covered by at least four US patents: 4184152 - on IGFET-based DAC stuff 4488061 - on the IGFET-based drive circuit part of the DAC. 4408094 - covers the 3 pin DAC with the volume control/vref pin. Not all that interesting, except it might describe to some extent how the (9->5bit?) PWM works in the text. 4470113 - covers the multiplexed PB0/1/2/3 pins and their use as /CS /WR /RD and ALE note as I have marked the pins below I assume the final pins connected to /CS /WR /RD and /ALE are PB7,6,5,4 but this is just a guess of mine: The actual order may well match the patent. 4577343 - covers the VSRSSS implementation as discussed in the Bristow book. This patent has an internal diagram of the workings of the chips and a limited description of how many registers etc it has. 4805508 - on the operation of the tone divider register and correction for accurate period when the tone interrupt frequency is not perfectly divisible from the clock. These next two may not be specific to the 1771 or even related at all! 4321562 - on a self-adjusting circuit for internal coupling to the clock crystal inputs. This may be a generic NEC invention and probably isn't limited to the upd1771. 4656491 - on a new method of distributing resistors and transistors on anti-ESD pin buffers This may be a generic NEC invention and probably isn't limited to the upd1771. Based on the 4577343 patent mostly, plus the bristow and IEEE article: * these are the registers: 8bits: AH, AL (forming the 16-bit A' accumulator), B, C (a pair of general purpose registers), 4bits (may be technically part of ALU): H -> points to one of the 16 words of ram 1bit: L -> selector of left or right half of the ram word ?bits: D (having to do with the DAC) N (3 bits? having to do with the pseudorandom noise interrupt, namely setting the clock divider ratio for the PRNG clock vs cpu clock) MODE (5 or more bits? enabling/disabling/acking the noise interrupt, and the tone interrupts (there are four!)) SP (the stack pointer, probably 5 bits, points to the stack ram; may encompass H and L as above!) FLO: unsure. quite possibly 'flag overflow' used for branching. there likely exists other flags as well... ODF: 'output data flag?', selects which half of a selected ram word is output to the dac not really sure of this? Mask roms known: uPD1776C: mentioned in the bristow book, implements VSRSSS speech concatenation (see US Patent 4577343 which is a patent on this VSRSSS implementation) uPD1771C-006: used in NEC APC for sound as the "MPU" -011: used on Firefox F-4/Astro Thunder handheld -015: unknown, known to exist from part scalper sites only. -017: used on Epoch Super Cassette Vision for sound; This audio driver HLEs that part only.

The function of pin 7 is unknown. Pins 11 and 13 go to a special circuit, which according to kevtris's analysis of my schematics, consist of a balanced output (not unlike XLR cables), which are then combined together then sent to the RF box. (The bristow book explains that there are two DAC pins and one DAC VREF/volume pin. The dac+ and dac- are pins 11 and 13, and based on the photomicrograph it looks like dac vref is probably pin 12) HLE: All writes are made through address 0x3600 on the upD7801 Instead of using register=value, this chip require sending multiple bytes for each command, one after the other. **********************************************************************/ #include "emu.h" #include "upd1771.h" //#define VERBOSE 1 #include "logmacro.h" namespace { /* Each of the 8 waveforms have been extracted from the uPD1771c-017 internal ROM, from offset 0x1fd (start of first waveform) to offset 0x2fc (end of last waveform).
