@ufo8mycat You'll find more information, if you search for Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS). But the SID has some interesting tricks, like substituting the MSB of one accumulator with the MSB of another accumulator for ring modulation effects, or resetting one accumulator depending on the MSB of another accumulator for the synchronization effect.
So yeah, the "sampling rate" of the SID chip is really 1 MHz ! Bob Yannes did an amazing job with the SID ! The way the envelope (ADSR) works is pretty tricky ...
Thanks for this video .. It's nice to know even after all this time the little C64 can still teach us something .. Looking forward to more videos.. Thanks for sharing your knowledge..
I did a couple of digi electronic units and a microprocessor fundamentals unit and I love this stuff. While I'm primarily a coder, understanding the digi concepts has helped me no end. Especially with the low-level coding.
I have virtually no comprehension of what you're talking about but I so desperately want to understand. Frustrating.

There is just something incredibly sexy about a beautiful woman explaining digital electronics.
Great insite into this brilliant sound chip.

From what I understand...some of the people who designed the C64 later created some nice Ensoniq synthesizers and samplers

delta phase = signal frequency / (sampling frequency * resolution phase accumulator)

Love your work Jeri.

Thanks! Glad you liked it. I love the SID and I plan on dissecting it more and sharing what I learned while making the C64 DTV

So with this information, you can convert an mp3 or wma audio file to a commodore 64 data?
