KPC488Driver
============

The IEEE 488 interface, sometimes referred to as the General Purpose
Interface Bus (GPIB), is a system for transferring data between
devices.  The interface is described in the document  ``ANSI/IEEE Std
488.1-1987, IEEE Standard Digital Interface for Programmable
Instrumentation''. Important features of the IEEE 488 bus include:

- Up to 15 devices connected to one bus.
- Total bus length up to 20m.
- Data transfer rates up to 1 Mbyte/sec.

Driver Features

This is a simple, stripped-down, driver for the Keithley KPC488.2
IEEE-488 bus interface card.  It also works with the National
Instruments GPIB-PCII/IIA card.  It may work for other cards that use
the NEC mPD7210 chip.
