Cheap chips? David asks, "Does anyone use Lucent K56Flex chipsets in their client modems, or all they all at Rockwell's mercy?" I can't think of a Lucent vendor in the consumer end of the business... Rockwell has done very well there, by making their chips very available, and supplying a "reference design" so that you could set up in the business of using their parts without having to think very hard. I seem to remember that there was someone who used the Cirrus chipset in V.34 modems, but I can't remember who... somebody pretty small. Lucent seems to have concentrated on the head-end business. No idea why.... I'm not a DSP-type, but I've heard theirs is pretty nice. Actually, I guess we can conclude that both the TI and Lucent DSPs are nice, since their two proponents are ready to test the proposed V.PCM standard, but Rockwell is still (as pointed out on this thread) making excuses.
