- BDA:
Memory control, system control, and video/graphic control Full triangle renderer including setup engine, MPEG-1 decoder hardware, DSP for audio and various kinds of DMA control and port access Random access of frame buffer and z-buffer (actually w-buffer) possible at the same time
- CDE: Power bus connected to BDA and the two CPUs, "bio-bus" used as a low-speed bus for peripheral hardware
- Renderer capabilities:
1 million un-textured triangles/s geometry rate 100 million pixels/s fill rate reportedly 700,000 textured polygons/s *without* gouraud shading or additional effects reportedly 300,000 to 500,000 textured polygons/s *with* gouraud shading, lighting and effects
- Shading: flat shading and gouraud shading, texture mapping, decal, modulation blending, tiling (16K/128K texture buffer built-in)
Hardware z-buffer (16-bit) (actually a block floating point with multiple (4) range w-buffer), object-based full-scene anti-aliasing, alpha channel (4-bit or 7-bit)
- Resolution : 320x240 to 640x480 resolution at 24-bit color
- Sound hardware - 16-bit 32-channel DSP at 66 MHz (within BDA chip)
- Media - Quad-speed CD-ROM drive (600 KB/s)
- RAM - Unified memory subsystem with 8 MB/s, 64-bit bus resulting in peak 533 MB/s bandwidth, Average access 400 MB/s.
- Full Motion Video - MPEG-1
- Writable Storage - Memory cards from 128 KiB to 32 MiB
- Expansion Capabilities - 1 PCMCIA port (potentially used for Modems, Ethernet NICs, etc.)
