I'm not sure the above answer is correct. I have not seen the 8221 work with any newer PXI controller (from the 8196 onwards) due to interrupt serialization issues with controllers that use PCI Express architectures. I don't believe the 16/32 bit PCMCIA vs. cardbus issue is the problem. The 8196, 8105 and 8106 PXI controllers are all based on PCIe (even though they are PXI controllers). I have not found a solution to this issue so far.

The PXI-8221 may work with the PXI-8106 controller for certain applications. There are issues with interrupt conflicts depending on the PCMCIA card that is chosen and each application must be validated individually and with the understanding that there is a reasonable chance that the PCMCIA card chosen may not be supported. I would recommend into considering other support options as well including looking for USB versions of the PCMCIA card.
