Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

On  July  21,  2000,  PMC-Sierra,   Inc.  completed  the  acquisition  of  Datum
Telegraphic,  Inc. in accordance  with the  Acquisition  Agreement  (the "Merger
Agreement") dated June 26, 2000 between PMC and Datum.

Datum is a privately held wireless  semiconductor  company located in Vancouver,
Canada.  Datum makes digital signal  processors that allow traffic for all major
digital wireless standards to be transmitted using a single digitally controlled
power amplifier architecture.

PMC  purchased  the 92%  interest  of  Datum  that PMC did not  already  own for
approximately  591,000  shares of PMC common  stock and options to purchase  PMC
common stock and $17,000,000 cash in lieu of PMC common stock.

PMC will account for the merger as a purchase.  PMC expects to record a one-time
charge  to  earnings  during  the  third  quarter  of  fiscal  2000  due  to the
acquisition of technology  that has not reached  technological  feasibility  and
that has no  alternative  future use.  The amount of the charge has not yet been
determined.

Item 7. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

On August  28,  2000,  PMC-Sierra,  Inc.  filed a Current  Report on Form 8-K to
report  the  completion  of its  acquisition  of Datum  Telegraphic,  Inc.  This
Amendment is filed to add the financial  statements of the business acquired and
pro-forma information as required by Item 7.

(a)      Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired

         Financial  statements  of  Datum  included  in  this  Amendment  are as
         follows:

         - Audited  financial  statements  of Datum as of and for the year ended
         August 31, 1999;

         - Unaudited financial statements of Datum as of and for the nine months
         ended May 31, 2000.

(b)      Pro Forma Financial Information

         The following  unaudited  pro forma  condensed  consolidated  financial
         information  is being  filed  herewith:  Unaudited  Pro Forma  Combined
         Condensed Balance Sheet at June 25, 2000,  Unaudited Pro Forma Combined
         Condensed  Statement of Operations for the year ended December 26, 1999
         and six months  ended June 25,  2000 and Notes to  Unaudited  Pro Forma
         Combined Condensed Financial Statements.

The unaudited pro forma combined financial  statements give effect to the merger
of PMC, Datum and Malleable  Technologies,  Inc. on a purchase accounting basis.
The pro forma condensed  combined balance sheet assumes the merger took place on
June 25, 2000 and combines the June 25, 2000 balance  sheet of PMC with the June
30, 2000 balance sheet of Malleable and the May 31, 2000 balance sheet of Datum.
The pro forma  condensed  combined  statement of  operations  for the year ended
December 31, 1999 assumes the merger took place on January 1, 1999.  It combines
the  historical  results with pro forma  adjustments  of PMC for the fiscal year
ended  December  26,  1999 with the fiscal  year  ended  December  31,  1999 for
Malleable and the twelve months ended November 30, 1999 for Datum. The pro forma
combined  statement of operations for the six months ended June 25, 2000 assumes
the merger took place as of January 1, 1999. It combines the historical  results
of PMC and  Malleable  for the six months  ended June 25, 2000 and Datum for the
six months ended May 31, 2000.

The pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not
necessarily indicative of the operating results or financial position that would
have  occurred  had  the  acquisitions  of  Datum  and  Malleable  by  PMC  been
consummated  at the beginning of the periods  presented,  nor is it  necessarily
indicative of future operating  results or financial  position.  These pro forma
financial  statements  are  based on and  should  be read  with  the  historical
combined  financial  statements  and the related notes thereto of PMC, Datum and
Malleable.

Auditors' Report

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Datum Telegraphic Inc.


We have  audited the balance  sheet of Datum  Telegraphic  Inc. as at August 31,
1999 and the statements of operations,  stockholders'  equity and cash flows for
the year then ended.  These financial  statements are the  responsibility of the
Company's'  management.  Our  responsibility  is to  express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally  accepted auditing standards
in the United States.  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit
to obtain  reasonable  assurance  whether the financial  statements  are free of
material  misstatement.  An audit includes examining,  on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

In our  opinion,  these  combined  statements  present  fairly,  in all material
respects,  the  financial  position of the Company as at August 31, 1999 and the
results  of its  operations  and its  cash  flows  for the  year  then  ended in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Description of business

         Datum  Telegraphic  Inc. (the  "Company" or "Datum")  designs  wireless
         semiconductor systems.

         Basis of presentation

         The financial  statements  have been prepared due to the acquisition of
         Datum by PMC-Sierra,  Inc. The Company's  fiscal year end is August 31.
         The Company's functional and reporting currencies are the United States
         dollar.

         Estimates

         The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally
         accepted  accounting  principles  requires management to make estimates
         and assumptions  that affect reported  amounts of assets,  liabilities,
         revenues  and  expenses,   and  disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and
         liabilities  as of the dates and for the periods  presented.  Estimates
         are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for doubtful accounts,
         depreciation and amortization,  sales returns, taxes and contingencies.
         Actual results may differ from those estimates.

         Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments

         Cash  equivalents  are defined as highly liquid debt  instruments  with
         original  maturities at the date of acquisition of 90 days or less that
         have  insignificant  interest  rate risk.  Short-term  investments  are
         defined as money market  instruments with original  maturities  greater
         than 90 days, but less than one year.

         Under  Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 115 "Accounting for Certain
         Investments  in Debt and Equity  Securities"  ("SFAS 115"),  management
         classifies investments as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity at the
         time of purchase and  re-evaluates  such designation as of each balance
         sheet date. Investments  classified as held-to-maturity  securities are
         stated at  amortized  cost with  corresponding  premiums  or  discounts
         amortized against interest income over the life of the investment.

         Marketable    equity   and   debt    securities   not   classified   as
         held-to-maturity are classified as  available-for-sale  and reported at
         fair  value.  Unrealized  gains  and  losses on these  investments  are
         included  in  accumulated  other  comprehensive  income.  The  cost  of
         securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

         As at August 31, 1999, the Company's short-term  investments  consisted
         solely of  held-to-maturity  investments  and their  carrying value was
         substantially  the same as their market value.  Proceeds from sales and
         realized gains or losses on sales of available-for-sale  securities for
         all years presented were immaterial.

         Property and equipment, net

         Property and  equipment  are stated at cost and  depreciated  using the
         straight-line  method over the  estimated  useful  lives of the assets,
         ranging from two to five years, or the applicable lease term, whichever
         is shorter.  The carrying  value of property and  equipment is reviewed
         periodically for any permanent impairment in value.

         The components of property and equipment are as follows:

         Foreign currency translation

         The United States dollar is the Company's functional  currency.  Assets
         and liabilities in Canadian  dollars are translated  using the exchange
         rate at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at
         average  rates of  exchange  during  the year.  Gains and  losses  from
         foreign  currency  transactions  are  included  in  interest  and other
         income.

         Fair value of financial instruments

         The estimated  fair value  amounts have been  determined by the Company
         using  available   market   information   and   appropriate   valuation
         methodologies.   However,   considerable   judgment   is   required  in
         interpreting  market  data to  develop  the  estimates  of fair  value.
         Accordingly,   the  estimates  presented  herein  are  not  necessarily
         indicative  of the amounts that the Company  could realize in a current
         market exchange.

         The Company's  carrying value of cash and cash equivalents,  short-term
         investments,   accounts   receivable,   accounts  payable  and  accrued
         liabilities  and amounts due to  shareholders  approximates  fair value
         because the instruments have a short-term maturity.

         The fair value of the  Company's  stockholder  loans at August 31, 1999
         approximates their carrying value.

         Concentrations

         The  Company  maintains  its  cash,  cash  equivalents  and  short-term
         investments in investment grade financial instruments with high-quality
         financial institutions, thereby reducing credit risk concentrations.

         Revenue recognition

         Revenues from service contracts are recognized as the work is performed
         by  the  Company's  employees.   Amounts  received  from  customers  as
         prepayments  for  services to be provided in the future are recorded on
         the balance sheet as deferred  revenue and are recognized as revenue as
         the work is performed.

         intrinsic value method in accordance  with APB No. 25,  "Accounting for
         Stock Issued to Employees".  Deferred stock compensation  charges arise
         from those  situations  where  either  shares or options  are issued or
         granted  at an  exercise  price  lower  than  the  fair  value  of  the
         underlying  common  shares.  These  amounts are amortized as charges to
         operations over the vesting periods of the individual stock options.

         Income taxes

         Income taxes are  reported  under  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
         Standards  No.  109  and,   accordingly,   deferred  income  taxes  are
         recognized using the asset and liability  method,  whereby deferred tax
         assets and liabilities  are recognized for the future tax  consequences
         attributable to differences  between the financial  statement  carrying
         amounts of existing  assets and  liabilities  and their  respective tax
         basis, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.

         Comprehensive income

         Under Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 130,  Reporting
         Comprehensive  Income ("SFAS  130"),  the Company is required to report

1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

         Recently issued accounting standards

         In June 1998, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
         SFAS No.  133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and  Hedging
         Activities",  which establishes  accounting and reporting standards for
         derivative  instruments  and hedging  activities.  The  Statement  will
         require  the   recognition   of  all   derivatives   on  the  Company's
         consolidated  balance  sheet at fair value.  The FASB has  subsequently
         delayed implementation of the standard to the financial years beginning
         after June 15,  2000.  The Company  expects to adopt the new  Statement
         effective  January  1,  2001.  The  impact on the  Company's  financial
         statements is not expected to be material.

         In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange  Commission  issued Staff
         Accounting   Bulletin  No.  101,  "Revenue   Recognition  in  Financial
         Statements"  (SAB No.  101).  SAB No. 101,  which is  effective  in the
         fourth  quarter  of  2000,   provides   guidance  on  the  recognition,
         presentation,  and disclosure of revenue in financial statements of all
         public  companies.  Management does not expect that the adoption of SAB
         101  will  have a  significant  effect  on  the  Company's  results  of
         operations or financial position.

         In March 2000, the FASB issued FASB  Interpretation  No. 44 ("FIN 44"),
         "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation." The
         Company  will be required to adopt FIN 44  effective  July 1, 2000 with
         respect to certain  provisions  applicable to new awards,  exchanges of
         awards in a business combination,  modifications to outstanding awards,
         and changes in grantee  status that occur on or after that date. FIN 44
         addresses  practice  issues  related to the  application  of Accounting
         Practice  Bulletin  Opinion  No. 25,  "Accounting  for Stock  issued to
         Employees."  The Company does not expect the  application  of FIN 44 to
         have a  material  impact  on  its  financial  position  or  results  of
         operations.

2.       DUE TO STOCKHOLDER

         During  the year  ended  August  31,  1999  Datum  borrowed  a total of
         $330,373  Canadian  dollars  from three  stockholders.  These loans are
         non-interest  bearing,  unsecured  and repayable at the earlier of five
         years or at the demand of the stockholder.

3.       STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

         Class A Shares

         Class A shares are voting, non-participating,  non-convertible, and can
         be transferred  only in connection  with the transfer of Class B shares

         transfer, the holders of the Class A shares will be entitled to receive
         for each  Class A share no more  than an  amount  equal to the  paid-up
         capital of the Class A shares. In the event of a Liquidation Event, the
         holders of the Class A shares shall be entitled to receive no more than
         an amount equal to the paid-up capital thereof on a pro-rata basis with
         the holders of the outstanding  Class B shares,  Class C shares and the
         Class D shares.

3.       STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (Continued)

         Class B Shares

         Class B shares are non-voting. In the event of liquidation,  holders of
         Class B shares are also  entitled to the paid-up  capital on a pro-rata
         basis,  and if any of the property or assets of the Company  thereafter
         remain  available for  distribution,  the holders of the Class B shares
         shall be entitled  to receive,  on a pro rata basis with the holders of
         the  Class C shares  and the  Class D  shares  then  outstanding,  such
         assets.

         Class C Shares

         Class C shares are voting shares. In the event of the liquidation,  the
         holders of the Class C shares  shall be  entitled  to receive an amount
         equal to the paid-up  capital  thereof and any  dividends  declared and
         unpaid on the pro-rata basis with the holders of the outstanding  Class
         A shares,  Class B shares  and the  Class D  shares,  and if any of the
         property  or assets of the  Company  thereafter  remain  available  for
         distribution,  the  holders of the Class C shares  shall be entitled to
         receive, on a pro-rata basis with the holders of the Class B shares and
         the Class D shares then outstanding, such assets.

         Class D shares

         Class D shares have voting  rights and each shall confer the right to a
         .96353  vote in person or by proxy at all  meetings  of  members of the
         Company.  In the event of the  liquidation,  the holders of the Class D
         shares  shall be  entitled  to receive an amount  equal to the  paid-up
         capital  thereof and any  dividends  declared  and unpaid on a pro-rata
         basis  with the  holders  of the  outstanding  Class A shares,  Class B
         shares and the Class C shares,  and if any of the property or assets of
         the Company  thereafter remain available for distribution,  the holders
         of the Class D shares  shall be  entitled  to  receive,  on a  pro-rata
         basis,  with the  holders  of the Class B shares and the Class C shares
         then outstanding, such assets.

         Stock options

         The Company has issued  stock  options to certain  employees.  Deferred
         stock  compensation  has been  recorded in accordance  with  Accounting
         Principles  Board  Opinion  No.  25,  "Accounting  for Stock  Issued to
         Employees,"  and its related  interpretations  based on the deemed fair
         value of the underlying common stock.

3.       STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (Continued)

         Stock options (continued)

         Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 123,  "Accounting for
         Stock-Based  Compensation"  (SFAS 123),  requires the disclosure of pro
         forma net loss as if the Company had adopted the fair value method. The
         Company's  calculations  were made using the minimum  value method with
         the following weighted average assumptions:  expected life, four years;
         risk-free interest rate, 5%; and no dividends during the expected term.
         The Company's  calculations  are based on a multiple  option  valuation
         approach, and forfeitures are recognized as they occur. If the computed
         fair  values of the  awards  had been  amortized  to  expense  over the
         vesting  periods of the  awards,  the pro forma net loss would not have
         been materially  different from the amounts reported for the year ended
         August 31, 1999.

         A summary of option activity is as follows:

         Balance, August 31, 1998                  $ 120,500
         Granted                                      34,700
         Exercised                                   (25,750)
                                                  -----------
         Balance, August 31, 1999                  $ 129,450
                                                  -----------


         All the  options  have an exercise  price of Canadian  $0.25 per share,
         have a remaining  life of 3.33 years and are not  exercisable at August
         31, 1999.

      NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           (all dollars in thousands)

NOTE 1:  Basis of Presentation

The following  unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial  statements give
the effect to the acquisitions of Malleable  Technologies Inc. ("Malleable") and
Datum Telegraphic Inc. ("Datum") by PMC-Sierra, Inc. (the "Company" or "PMC").

On June 13, 2000,  the Company  entered into a definitive  agreement to purchase
the 85%  interest of  Malleable  that PMC did not already  own. The purchase was
completed on June 27,  2000.  The  purchase  price of $293,837  consisted of the
issuance of common shares,  options and warrants of the Company  pursuant to the
exercise  of a call  option  held  by PMC  with a fair  value  of  $293,012  and
acquisition related costs of $825. Malleable is a fabless  semiconductor company
located  in  San  Jose,  CA.  Malleable  makes  digital  signal  processors  for
voice-over-packet processing applications which bridge voice and high speed data
networks by compressing voice traffic into ATM or IP packets.

On June 26, 2000,  the Company  entered into a definitive  agreement to purchase
the 92%  interest  of Datum  that PMC did not  already  own.  The  purchase  was
completed on July 21,  2000.  The  purchase  price of $125,314  consisted of the
issuance of common  shares and options to purchase  shares of the Company with a
fair value of $107,414,  cash of $17,025 and acquisition related expenditures of
$875. Datum is a wireless  semiconductor  company located in Vancouver,  Canada.
Datum makes digital signal  processors  that allow traffic for all major digital
wireless  standards to be transmitted using a single digitally  controlled power
amplifier architecture.

The pro forma condensed  combined balance sheet assumes the merger took place on
June 25, 2000 and combines the June 25, 2000 balance  sheet of PMC with the June
30, 2000 balance sheet of Malleable and the May 31, 2000 balance sheet of Datum.
The pro forma  condensed  combined  statement of  operations  for the year ended
December 31, 1999 assumes the merger took place on January 1, 1999.  It combines
the  historical  results with pro forma  adjustments  of PMC for the fiscal year
ended  December  26,  1999 with the fiscal  year  ended  December  31,  1999 for
Malleable and the twelve months ended November 30, 1999 for Datum. The pro forma
combined  statement of operations for the six months ended June 25, 2000 assumes
the merger took place as of January 1, 1999. It combines the historical  results
of PMC and  Malleable  for the six months  ended June 25, 2000 and Datum for the
six months ended May 31, 2000.

The  unaudited  pro  forma  condensed   combined   balance  sheet  reflects  the
appropriate  pro  forma  adjustments  to  record  the  acquisition  of Datum and
Malleable  using the  purchase  method of  accounting  as  described  in Note 2.
Acquisition costs and the preliminary determination of the unallocated excess of
acquisition costs over net assets acquired are set forth below:

  and other intangibles                    ==========    ==========   ==========

The fair value of shares of PMC common stock was determined by taking an average
of the  opening and closing  price of PMC common  stock for a short  period just
before and just after the terms of the transactions were agreed to by PMC, Datum
and Malleable and announced to the public.  The purchase  price was increased by
the  estimated  fair value of the PMC options  and  warrants  exchanged  for the
Malleable and Datum options and warrants outstanding.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated  statements of operations reflect
additional  amortization  expense  resulting  from the  increase in goodwill and
other  intangible  assets due to these  acquisitions.  The charge for in process
research and development and the allocation to unearned  compensation  have been
reflected in the unaudited  pro forma  condensed  combined  balance  sheet.  The
charge for in process  research and  development  and  amortization  of unearned
compensation  have  not been  included  in the  Unaudited  Pro  Forma  Condensed
Combined  Statements  of  Operations  as these  statements do not give effect to
nonrecurring merger costs related to the transaction.  The unallocated excess of
acquisition costs over net assets acquired has been  preliminarily  allocated to
goodwill,  which will be amortized over five years. In accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, the acquired in process research and development
will be charged to expense by PMC in its third quarter ended September 24, 2000.

In  connection   with   finalizing  the  purchase  price   allocation  of  these
transactions,  PMC is currently  evaluating the fair value of the  consideration
given and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities  assumed.  Using
this  information,  PMC will  make a final  allocation  of the  purchase  price,
including  the  allocation  to in process  research  and  development,  unearned
compensation  and  goodwill  and other  intangibles.  Accordingly,  the purchase
accounting information is preliminary.

The pro forma combined financial  statements  included herein have been prepared
by PMC,  without audit,  pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange  Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
prepared in accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles have been
condensed  or omitted  pursuant  to such  rules and  regulations.  However,  PMC
believes  that  the  disclosures  are  adequate  to  make  the  information  not
misleading.  These pro forma  combined  financial  statements  should be read in
conjunction  with the  consolidated  financial  statements and the notes thereto
included  in PMC's  annual  report on Form  10-K/A  for the  fiscal  year  ended
December 26, 1999, the restated  consolidated  financial  statements and related
notes of PMC included in PMC's  registration  statement on Form S-4/A dated July
26, 2000, the financial statements of Malleable included in PMC's Form 8-K filed
August 4, 2000 and the financial statements of Datum included in this filing.

NOTE 2:  Pro Forma Adjustments

The  pro  forma  condensed   combined   balance  sheet  reflects  the  following
adjustments:

         a) To record intangibles  including goodwill,  assembled work force and
         unearned compensation.

         b) To record  acquisition  related  expenses of $ 1,700  which  include
         costs for legal, accounting and other costs related to the acquisitions
         of Malleable and Datum.

         c)  To  reclass  the  existing  15%  investment  in  Malleable  and  8%
         investment in Datum to goodwill.

         d)  To  record  the   acquisition  of  Malleable  by  the  issuance  of
         approximately 1,693,000 shares of common stock, options and warrants to
         purchase the 85% interest of Malleable that PMC did not already own. To
         record the  acquisition of Datum by the payment of $ 17,025 in cash and
         issuance of approximately 591,000 shares of common stock and options to
         purchase  common  stock for the 92%  interest of Datum that PMC did not
         already own.

         e) To  eliminate  the  common  stock and  additional  paid-in  capital,
         deferred stock  compensation  and accumulated  deficit of Malleable and
         Datum.

         f) To record the charge for in process research and development.

The pro forma combined statements of operations reflect the following adjustment
with respect to the acquisition:

         a) To  record  amortization  of  purchased  intangibles  other  than in
         process  research and development  over estimated  useful lives of five
         years.

NOTE 3:  Earnings Per Share

Basic and diluted net income per share for each period is calculated by dividing
pro forma net income by the shares used to calculate net income per share in the
historical  period  plus the  effect of the  shares of the PMC's  common  stock,
options and warrants which were exchanged for all issued and outstanding  shares
of Datum not already owned by PMC.
