Hi! Would there be any interest in an 8 bit ISA USB adapter? I saw a recent thread on CCTALK mailing list on the subject and wondered if there were sufficient interest to do VCF group project. Working with Chuck and Hargle, there have been a couple recent VCF homebrew projects that turned out well (XT-IDE, AT2XTKBD)
Here is the thread on CCTALK:

Of particular interest is this comment

The SL811HS is available in 28 pin PLCC which would aid the DIP PTH approach. However, it may be worthwhile to try an SMT board and see how that goes since the parts appear more readily available in 48 TQFP. Not that I am thrilled with an SMT part but I wouldn't want that to be the only reason to squelch and otherwise good idea.
Thanks and have a nice day!
