General Notes		Controllerless Windows-only V.90/x2^TM PCI Chipset
general info:		Introduced in the days of Cirrus Logic this controllerless (see bottom) chipset is now discontinued (see this page) although Intel continue to support it.
driver version:
chipset refs:		DAA: (Data Access Arrangement) CL-MD1724T (PCI twin-chip) DSP: (Digital Signal Processor) CL-MD5620DT-QC-CF (PCI twin-chip)
known conflicts:		x2^TM modems can suffer problems with Freeserve if they attempt to make an x2^TM connection before a V.90 connection (this will fail & connection will stop) - switch off x2^TM connections by putting "+ms=11" (no quotes) in the Extra Settings box if this occurs.

Manuals:		Intel Product Brief Pine
A controllerless Windows-only PCI card that contains a DSP (Digital Signal Processer) chip but passes controller functions (AT-Commands etc) to the host-computer's OS. Cirrus Logic produced the original chipset. Cirrus then spun all its modem chipsets off as an independant company called Ambient Technologies. Ambient discontinued the chipset (replaced by the MD563X-HaM). Ambient became part of Intel, and Intel now no longer uses the Ambient name. Intel continue to support all the former Cirrus Logic/Ambient modem chipsets. 20 Feb 2001 Thanks to Paul Mullen for reporting a website change from Ambient to Intel.
