The PCMCIA-488 is a low-cost, high-performance controller, while the USB-488 is a compact, full-function IEEE-488.2 controller. Both are plug-and-play compatible and can control up to 14 programmable IEEE-488, GPIB, and HP-IB instruments. Updated drivers ship with all controllers at no extra cost, and they work with TestPoint, LabView, LabView/CVI, and VEE environments. The PCMCIA unit costs $595, and the USB unit costs $495.
