I am looking for an interface card to connect a single pin of an external device (output 3.3-5V) to a standard PC or notebook. There is no parallel or serial port available on those modern PCs so I was looking for some kind of PCI/PCIe/ExpressCard that would do the job. The application would just poll the GPIO line. Could anybody suggest anything that works reliably? Thanks in advance. -Andre
