What kind of "PCI to PCMCIA" adaptor do I need?

What kind of "PCI to PCMCIA" adaptor do I need?

‎02-15-2005 09:32 AM

I have been logging data from analytical balances to a laptop running LabVIEW through a "4 port PCMCIA RS-232 Interface board". I would like to know if I can still use this card in a normal desktop PC by a "16-bit PCMCIA-PCI adaptor". Thanks.

There are "PCI to PCMCIA" PCI cards, but I personally would just get a 4 port PCI RS-232 card. Your application won't know the difference and you won't have to worry about incompatibilities between the PCI card and the PCMCIA card.

If you do decide to go with the adapter, just google PCMCIA to PCI adapter and you'll get plenty of results.
