<..I know mixed signal currently has a very hi-speed ADSL solution
in design. That puts this particular device at least 6 months from
production, but prototypes could be out in as little as 2 months
depending where the chip is in the design cycle. They're in heated competition with ADI on this one, but they believe it will outperform ADI's...>

Interesting.

This would indicate that TI is taking the ADI mixed entry pretty seriously, and that the current C6X DMT instantiation is NOT seen as the TI ADSL *hardware* end point. I wonder what THAT says about the market and deployment schedules. I would also allow an extended timeframe to your production estimate, as getting the line driver / AFE (which has the A/D and D/A and associated filters) is no mean feat, as MOT has found.

This, in addition to still awaiting DMT issue 1 (T1.413-1995) getting to final revision in issue 2, IMO continues to indicate further delays in serious RBOC ADSL deployments.

Thanks for the insight. (Keep us up on your group's progress?)
