PCI bridge soft core
is free to download
The OpenCores organisation has made available an open-source, free, complete 33/66MHs 32bit PCI bridge soft core solution
The PCI bridge soft core is a complete, synthesisable RTL (Verilog) code that provides bridging between the PCI and a Wishbone (SoC) bus. The complete package includes comprehensive specification and design documentation, a comprehensive verification suite, and a test application. The test application is a "VGA card" implemented using a Xilinx Spartan II device on a PCI development board from Insight Electronics.

The PCI bridge core is connected to a simple VGA controller core forming a system-on-chip and comes with a Linux frame buffer device driver.
The PCI bridge soft core supports common ASIC and FPGA libraries and is highly configurable including options for master/target or target-only as well as for host or guest operation.
Designers can download the PCI bridge soft core from the OpenCores PCI Project website.
OpenCores has issued an open invitation for companies and universities to use its PCI bridge soft core in their projects.
The organisation's main motivation and the sole reason for launching the PCI project is to see the core used in many different projects.
