<hardware, graphics> /blit'r/ (Or "raster blaster"). A
special-purpose integrated circuit or hardware system built
to perform blit (or "bit bang") operations, especially
used for fast implementation of bit-mapped graphics.
The Commodore Amiga and a few other microcomputers have
these, but in 1991 the trend is away from them (however, see
cycle of reincarnation).

CIRCUIT

A blitter is a circuit, sometimes as a coprocessor or a logic block on a microprocessor, dedicated to the rapid movement and modification of data within a computer's memory. A blitter can copy large quantities of data from one memory area to another relatively quickly, and in parallel with the CPU, while freeing up the CPU's more complex capabilities for other operations.
