Upon reading http://www.breezer.demon.co.uk/spec/tech/ay-3-8912.html,
I encountered the following: ---
 The AY-3-8910/8912 (and derivatives) has found its way into a variety of home
 computers and games consoles including the following:

Sinclair ZX Spectrum 128/+2/+3
Amstrad CPC 464/664/6128
Mattel Intellivision
BBC Micro
Atari ST
Sega Master System

Well, it's true WRT the Speccy, the Ammy (I suppose you can't say that =) and
the ST, but didn't we establish a while back that the BBC and Master System
chip, the SN76489, while superficially similar, was a different construction.
And as for the Intellivision, perhaps is it just due to the limited system in
general, lack of space, or perhaps a slow driving clock, but with the sub-
mediocre sound of the INTV, it seems like such a waste to employ a more
adanced sound generator such as the AY,
