just fyi we are working on multiple chipsets so mpc107/tsi107 etc etc wont be the only supported

this will help with prices and availability of cards and we have someone working on cheaper pci carriers for those

Does  Tundra Semi still support and supply the mpc107/tsi107?
not that i know of but their were many that made that chip but most used was either the TSI107 or XPC107 from Moto and there are many versions 66mhz-133mhz
we are trying other bridges made by IBM and Moto and maybe Marvell etc but dont get your hopes up everything is always WIP


but you can find XPC107 easily MPC107 was a ceramic chip that i havent seen used anywhere its either XPC107 or TSI07

Isn't it like XC68060 vs MC68060? Where they fix bugs in the XC and then it becomes MC when it's signed off?

"Motorola will continue to support both the Z00K21S (Rev C, i.e.
      XPC107APX66/100LC)mask revision and the new mask revision, Z02K21S.
      The Rev D XPC107 is not a drop in replacement in some designs. Thus,
      Rev C will still be offered. For any new design, Motorola strongly
      suggests customers use the rev D version.
     
      For more information, please refer to the application notes,"MPC107,
      Revision 1.3 and 1.4: Comparison and Compatibility." (AN2455/D) on
      the MPC107 product summary page on the web.

CHANGED PART IDENTIFICATION

      XPC107 product built with the Rev D mask, Z02K21S, will have a "D"
      suffix at the end of the device number (XPC107APX66LD and
      XPC107APX100LD),as opposed to the "C" suffix for the Z00K21S mask
      product (XPC107APX66C and XPC107APX100LC) Also, the device marking
      will contain "02K21S" as the mask revision. All other marking on the
      device will remain unchanged. "

 The XC68060 and MC68060 were both available in ceramic, if you wanted it (which not many people did). I would expect XPC107 and MPC107 to be the same.
nope doesnt seem to follow that rule with these bridges
 the harrier bridge they made is ceramic though but is completely incompatible with XPC107
i have seen one pic on google of the MPC107 but like i said never seen it used the last ceramic bridge that was used was the 106 which doesnt have I2O
