E5 asic is designed by Primax and last one designed by themself, after that
they use ASICs from other IC design house. and E5 already be design
two years ago:( the representive one is Visioneer 8100

All the E series drivers use same framework, but E5 is more powerful than
others
and have different settings

I published E3&4 Linux drivers http://www.littlscms/iphoto/otlinux.htm
and get agreement from Primax, so anyone want to license, should
ask Primax Taiwan
> Is anyone working on a scanner with the E5 asic?
> Does anyone have some docs about that chip?
>
> I've hacked the viceo driver a little and I can get some movement
> (actually something that look like a scan) from my Memorex 6142u, but the
> result is a black image. The viceo work with the E3 and E4 chips.
>
> Does anyone knows where the windows sources from the viceo driver are
> coming from, and their legal status (licence)?
