HERE IT IS !!!!! Phoenix Technologies Announces First Virtual Component Interface Core *10/100 MAC Core Enables System-on-Chip Evolution of Ethernet-Based Designs for Internet Connectivity* SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 17, 1999-- Phoenix Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:PTEC - news) - the global leader in system-level software and semiconductor IP cores for computers, system-on-chip, embedded systems, information appliances and other connected information platforms - today announced the broad availability of a new 10/100 Fast Ethernet media access controller (MAC) core that will facilitate integrated system-on-chip designs of next generation communication systems. Phoenix's 10/100 MAC core is the first Ethernet IP to feature the Virtual Component Interface (VCI), a standard bus interface defined by the VSI Alliance to ease the integration of IP components onto a single chip. The Ethernet core is Phoenix's first offering in a planned family of interconnect cores which will utilize the VCI standard. ''The exploding Internet-driven demand for cost-effective bandwidth guarantees another evolution of existing Ethernet products as well as innovative new applications,'' said Barry Hoberman, vice president of the Semiconductor IP Group for Phoenix. ''To enable these designs, system-on-chip (SOC) integration is required to reduce board space and cost-per-port. By combining the VCI architecture with Ethernet IP, Phoenix's cores enable designers to quickly integrate low-cost network connectivity into their SOC applications.'' biz.yahoo.com Sounds very interesting to me!
