Hello,

For a laoboratory measurement control / data acquisition system I'd like
to use a DSP board that plugs into a standard PC. A nice, low-cost card
that fits the bill is this one:

However, it only comes with an ISA slot. All PCI cards that I could find
are much more expensive and have tons of additional performance that I
don't need.

Does anybody know of a simpler, cheaper model with PCI? I've actually
seen stuff for "Compact PCI" or "PC104" buses -- but to use those I'd
probably have to build te entire PC on this bus system which would cost
more than a high-performance DSP board in a consumer PC.

The board must be supported by Linux drivers. The actual DSP hardware on
the board is of no importance because I'm starting from zero anyway, as
long as the development tools are not prohibitively expensive for a
University project.

Thanks for any suggestions,

robert

I'm sure they can. Sorry for the off-topic posting.

I didn't think it was off-topic, and I wasn't being sarcastic either,
(at least not on purpose ). I was just pointing to were more
knowledgeable people can be found.

These two links may help:
