Is anyone aware of a board for AT-bus's that does plain 16-bit strobed I/O?
I've called IKON and National Instruments, and the only 16-bit parallel
boards they offer follow the DEC DR-11W protocol, which I know nothing about,
but sounds too much like a protocol with funky control signals and opcodes
to me.

So, I need a board for 16-bit I/O (actually only input; this will take data
from a CCD camera) with only a strobe as control.

Also, if anyone can give me a brief description of DR-11W, or has any documents
explaining it, I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks,
Scott Ferguson
