## How Screens Work — The Copper Connection
The hardware trick that makes Amiga screens possible is the **[Copper](../08_graphics/copper.md)** (coprocessor), a DMA-driven programmable sequencer inside the Agnus/Alice chip. The Copper executes a list of instructions synchronized to the CRT electron beam position (see also: [Copper Programming](../08_graphics/copper_programming.md), [OCS Copper](../01_hardware/ocs_a500/copper.md), [AGA Copper](../01_hardware/aga_a1200_a4000/aga_copper.md)):
