Primarily I'm looking for an ESDI disk controller chip.
We had planned to use the AMD 9590 but I understand that 
device is on their obselescencence list.
The AMD 95C95 appears to be vapourware at this stage

The SMC products don't fit well in our application

Is anybody able to make any suggestions?

Maybe we should drop ESDI and use IPI but there are no
IPI controller chips I know of (except for one requiring
payment of a large licence fee).
