# OCS Chipset — A500 / A1000 / A2000
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Overview
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The **Original Chip Set** (OCS) ships in the Amiga 1000 (1985), A500 (1987), and early A2000 boards. It consists of three custom chips: **Agnus**, **Denise**, and **Paula**, supported by the MOS 8520 CIA pair.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Chip Summary
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
| Chip | MOS Part | Primary Responsibilities |
|
|||
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|||
|
|
| **Agnus** | 8361 (PAL), 8367 (NTSC) | DMA controller, Copper coprocessor, Blitter, address generation |
|
|||
|
|
| **Denise** | 8362 | Display: bitplane fetch decode, sprite decode, colour output |
|
|||
|
|
| **Paula** | 8364 | Audio DMA (4 channels), floppy disk I/O, serial port, interrupts |

## OCS Limitations vs ECS/AGA
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Max **512 KB Chip RAM** on A500 rev 5 and earlier (Agnus 8361/8367 addresses 512 KB only)
|
|||
|
|
- A500 rev 6+ allows 1 MB with Fat Agnus (part of later OCS run)
|
|||
|
|
- No productivity display modes (ECS adds BEAMCON0)
|
|||
|
|
- 32 colours max (or 64 EHB, or HAM 12-bit) in standard bitplane modes
|
|||
|
|
- Blitter is 16-bit; no 64-bit fetch (AGA adds FMODE)
|
|||
|
|
- No ECS Denise border features
