"About to be acquired by Oak Technology? Xionics makes the XipChip, which is "a new approach to designing a device controller, by integrating multiple components on one chip, XipChip enables OEMs to design all-in-one devices at lower price points while still producing quality output at speeds typically associated with high-priced, dedicated printer/copiers. The office computing market will finally get true MFP performance." Here's news of their Ricoh (!) deal: internet.xionics.com "Xionics was also the first developer to integrate Rambus Inc.'s ultra-high performance RDRAM technology on-chip with a processor core. This innovative use of Rambus' unique memory architecture helps solve the memory bottleneck often faced by peripherals designers. XipChip enables multifunction peripherals to print, copy, scan, fax and communicate complex digital documents in just one device. Here's news about the XipChip. I never found info describing the amount of RDRAM it uses: xionics.com Here's their updated homepage: xionics.com
