Hillsboro, Ore. - Three weeks after announcing plans to close down its OEM Modules Operation here and sell off its Multibus, Multibus II and iRMX lines, Intel Corp. has signed a letter of intent with RadiSys Corp. (Beaverton, Ore.) to take over those lines. The companies expect to complete the deal by May, with RadiSys giving Intel $1.2 million and 1.3 million shares of RadiSys stock, equivalent to a 17-percent interest. Venture Development Corp. estimates that the market for Multibus and Multibus II boards was about $260 million last year, with Intel taking most of it.
