alsoknown as Circuit Specialists in Arizona.

I have seen references to 8253's and 8255's in the Adlink C library header file, but I don't know specifically which of their modelshave them. I used a different one of the Adlink boards and they are Taiwanese, the boards work OK and the support is really weak.

Good Luck, Bob
