Lava One Port Parallel PCI card

The LAVA Parallel-PCI when it came to market was the first parallel PCI port card in the world. Fully PCI compliant it takes advantage of the speed and easy configuration of the PCI bus. When it appeared it almost tripled the speed benchmarks of ISA-bus parallel port cards while offering greater flexibility for configuration. Users were no longer restricted to the three standard parallel port addresses: the Parallel-PCI would automatically select a free address and IRQ during installation virtually eliminating user error and resource conflicts.
The Parallel PCI's strength lies in its Moko S-1 ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit). This chip consolidates a number of separate components into one chip and is only available on LAVA products. Adding efficiency in manufacture this card virtually eliminates any possibility of component failure.
