Thinking of hacking an Intellivoice?

The SP-0256-012 is a General Instruments "Narrator" Speech Processor and the 
SPB-640 is a buffer/interface device. I have the GI 1982 Microelectronics 
Data 
Catalog which has a 4 page data sheet for the SP-0256-012 but I think you 
need 
the Allophone Speech Synthesis Manual to use this chip as there is no 
operational description other than pin functions. 
Let me know if you want this limited info.
