See diagram.

If 'Mode' = 1, the EG is used instead of the 4bit volume value. f = 8M / (Coarse*256 + Fine) ?

  • TA = Timer A, TB = Timer B
  • Timers will tick until they have reached zero, at which point an IRQ will be generated if enabled. Reading port $04 will show which timer caused it.
  • The actual timer counter registers are not directly accessable. They can be reset to zero or initialised from load registers $24-$26
    • Writing 0 to the load bits in register $27 will reset the timer counter registers to zero
    • Writing 1 to the load bits will copy the respective timer load register to the timer counter. This only works when the timer is at zero.
  • When a timer expires, it is automatically reloaded from the load registers and continues.
  • Timer flag reset refers to the same flags that are read from port $04
  • CSM mode is for automatic key on for operators on the second FM channel when timer A expires?

FM part

ADPCM-A part

'Dump' in register $00 is the key on/off bit. Write 0 to start playing specified channels and write 1 to stop playing.

Reading

The only writable registers that can also be read are from the SSG. All other ports and addresses return different data.

Z80 port # Data Notes
$04
Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
Def Busy -Timer B flagTimer A flag
When a timer expires and IRQ is enabled for the timer, the respective bit is set
$05
Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
Def SSG register data
Attempting to read non-SSG registers will fail
$06
Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
Def ADPCM-B end -CH6 endCH5 endCH4 endCH3 endCH2 endCH1 end
When a channel has reached the end address and stops, the respective bit is set
$07 not implemented Always returns $00
