I've never seen one "in-the-flesh" as it were but the picture of one I saw
looked like a SCSI card based on the Viking design. You can identify it by
the single LED, and the microprocessor on it.

No clue.

This is the "fast" version of the Dilog ESDI controller. It will control
two drives and can handle 20Mhz drives w/ 1:1 interleave. (24Mhz drives
still need 2:1). In my experience it is more rare than the 696-15 and plain
696 which is I believe 10Mhz. Its a nice controller (I've got two) and
supported by NetBSD. Info is still available from the Manufacturer!

No clue on what the history is on this one.
