<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">harmony</code> device uses the Crystal
    Semiconductor CS4215 16-Bit Multimedia Audio Codec or Analog Devices AD1849
    SoundPort(R) Stereo Codec chip to implement the audio device interface
    described in <a class="Xr">audio(4)</a>. This device is found on most HP
    PA-RISC workstations. The <code class="Nm">harmony</code> has a maximum
    precision of 16 bits with a maximum 48000 Hz sample rate, and has stereo
    input and stereo output.</p>
<p class="Pp">On HP 9000/712 models <code class="Nm">harmony</code> also
    provides two additional channels for an add-on card with two fax/voice
    modems.</p>
<p class="Pp">One of the hardware registers reflects the state of the CHI bus
    that is used to communicate with the codec and thus being sampled at a low
    accuracy secondary frequency (such as <a class="Xr">timeout(9)</a>) produces
    a poor quality random bit stream that is fed into the entropy pool of
    <a class="Xr">rnd(4)</a>.</p>
