blitter /blit'r/ n.

[common] A special-purpose chip or hardware system built to perform [blit] operations, esp. used for fast implementation of bit-mapped graphics. The Commodore Amiga and a few other micros have these, but since 1990 the trend has been away from them (however, see [cycle of reincarnation]). Syn. [raster blaster].
