Awhile ago I asked for info on A/D boards with imbedded SCSI controllers
(to handle a high sustained data rate to an 8mm tape device) for ISA PC's,
but apparently no vendor carries such a beast.  I did find support for
EISA bus PC's, but I'd rather spend the same bucks on SPARCstation IPC's.
Hence, my current request . . .

I would appreciate any info on S-bus A/D data acquisition boards.
Again, we would like to digitize two simultaneous streams at 8-bit
resolution and 100kHz sample rates, plus two auxiliary streams at
4-bit resolution at the same rate.  The SPARCstation should (hopefully)
be able to move the resulting 300kB/s data to an Exabyte 8mm tape
device on the SCSI bus.

Vendors should feel free to send specs and (educational) pricing info.
