It's little more than a programemd PIC which directly drives the GPIB lines without buffers. I don't like that much, but... I think you can get source code for the firmware (apart from the USB routines, which are standard routins from Microchip). I have successfully controlled some GPIB gear with just a parallel port, not even a pullup resistor needed. Jon
