first i would recommend you to check the similar codecs of this
company. there are ALS100 (ISA) and ALS4000 (PCI).
also, read online documents about ALS300 from the hardware vendor,
even if it doesn't describe the technical information at all.
finally, try to contact with the vendor about datasheet. it's far
more meaningful than reverse engineering.
