contents We derive a transgression formula for the renormalized Chern character of the Bismut superconnection in the context of end-periodic fiber bundles and families of end-periodic Clifford modules. The transgression is expressed in terms of the Fourier-Laplace transform of the Bismut superconnection using the renormalized supertrace of Mrowka-Ruberman-Saveliev. Consequently, we establish an index formula for families of Dirac operators on end-periodic manifolds. The index formula involves a new ``end-periodic eta form'' which generalizes both the Bismut-Cheeger eta form and the end-periodic eta invariant of Mrowka-Ruberman-Saveliev.
