While Macronix and Lite-On have a close relationship, the PNIC-II is *not*
the same as the 98715. Beyond both being loosely Tulip clones, they are not
even close. A quick look at the driver sections will confirm this.
The PNIC-II datasheet is (or was at one time), proprietary. I have no
rights to redistribute it.
