Hardware mixing is a performance feature of computer audio hardware which enables sound card s to receive multiple audio streams and play them all at the same time. Hardware mixing improves performance by offloading audio mixing operations from the CPU and performing them at hardware speeds. In addition to mixing, the hardware performs related operations such as sample rate conversion SRC , attenuation, and, optionally, 3D processing that would otherwise need to be performed in software. On Microsoft Windows , hardware mixing is also referred to as hardware buffering or as DirectSound hardware acceleration . Those cards which offer hardware mixing include professional multichannel audio interfaces and Creative Labs X Fi, Live & Audigy series soundcards.

unreferenced date July 2009 In computing , Hardware acceleration is the use of computer hardware to perform some function faster than is possible in computer software software running on the general purpose Central processing unit CPU . Examples of hardware acceleration include blitting acceleration functionality in graphics processing unit s GPUs and instructions for complex operations in CPUs. Normally, processors are sequential, and instructions are executed one by one. Various techniques are used to improve performance hardware acceleration is one of them. The main difference between hardware and software is concurrency computer science concurrency , allowing hardware to be much faster than software. Hardware accelerators are designed for computationally intensive software code. Depending upon granularity, hardware acceleration can vary from a small functional unit to a large functional block like motion estimation in MPEG 2 . The hardware that performs the acceleration, when in a separate unit from the CPU, is referred to as a hardware accelerator , or often more specifically as graphics accelerator or floating point unit floating point accelerator , etc. Those terms, however, are older and have been replaced with less descriptive terms like video card or graphics card .

dictdef Electronic hardware refers to interconnected Electronics electronic components which perform analog circuit analog or Digital electronics logic operations on received and locally stored information to produce as output or store resulting new information or to provide control for output actuator mechanisms. Electronic hardware can range from individual Computer chips chips electrical network circuits to distributed information processing systems. Well designed electronic hardware is composed of hierarchies of functional modules which inter communicate via precisely defined interfaces. Hardware logic The term hardware logic is primarily a differentiation of the data processing circuitry from other more generalized circuitry. For example nearly all computers include a power supply which consists of circuitry not involved in data processing but rather powering the data processing circuits. Similarly, a computer may output information to a computer monitor or audio amplifier which is also not involved in the computational processes.
