At this point all there is is spares. There is no equivalent; the closest an equivalent that is in production has receiver

Eric,
Your other reply suggests that the DEC 8837 does have an almost equivalent
in the NS DS8837 which I have found a source for. I am unclear if you think
NS devices would do or not? What is the worst that could happen if the NS
part was not up to DEC specifications?
Thanks
