 DSP, for sound generation? Most Yamaha chips are undocumented. 
 
Nope--DSP for FAX modem.  Mentioned in July 1990, EDN:
"Compatible with the company's widely used YM7109 chip, the YM7109E
fax modem IC features enhancements such as error-correction and power-
down modes, as well as synchronization to an external clock. The CMOS
IC, which is targeted for use in personal-computer fax boards and
portable-fax applications, offers 9600-bps binary file transfers and
supports voice recording and playback."
I figure that if someone says the chip is "widely used", someone must
at least have a pinout...
