I recently bought a couple of parallel port boards and found that both of them use a 40-pin VLSI chip. I'm interested if anyone knows of any info on the chips or the companies that make them. Heck, if you know anything about any VLSI parallel port chips I'd like to hear about it. What I really want to know is if they will operate bidirectionally (I've tried some obvious type of punching 00 and 0xff into their control ports).
