Re: pci compliant devices?

["Cary Snyder" <cdsnyder@earthlink.net>]

Sri,
The standard practice has been to list any device who's output drivers meet
the PCI driver requirements. This results in some rather small devices being
listed as "PCI compliant" even though it would be impractical or perhaps even
impossible to implement a PCI interface in them. (This is considered something
a user would figure out specific to the intended PCI application.) You can
however implement a very simple "target" only PCI interface in some of the
smaller devices that would in effect be 100% compliant to some version of the
PCI specification.

hi

The FPGA vendors, EPLD vendors say, their devices are
PCI compliant. What do they mean? What is this compliance to PCI?

TIA
