Is there a USB interface chip someone could make an interface board out of?

number you specified may or may not be the same unit. There was a posting
here several weeks ago from someone who had made their own adapter using a
USB part from DonTronics. Search past postings and you should find it. The
person that developed this did a great job on this project and was very
thorough!
