The flexible bus interface scheme of the TAXIchip set accepts bytes that are either 8-, 9-, or 10-bit wide. Byte transfers can be Data or Command signalling. Through its Extension-of-Life program, Rochester is the authorised source for re-creating the AM7968/7969 family of communication devices that match the original form, fit and function, providing lifetime support.
AMD communication devices re-introduced by Rochester
The AM7968 TAXIchip Transmitter and the AM7969 TAXIchip Receiver Chipset is a general-purpose interface for very high-speed (4-17.5MBps, 40-175MBd serially) point-to-point communications over coaxial or fibre-optic media. The speed of a TAXIchip system is adjustable over a range of frequencies, with parallel bus transfer rates of 4MBps at the low end, and up to 17.5MBps at the high end.
