- Supported initiator commands and functions:Parity generation, parity error detection
- Configurations read / write
- Memory read / write, memory read multiple, memory read line
- I/O read / write
- Interrupt acknowledge, special cycles
- Parity generation, parity error detection
- Master abort
- Supports a very generic user interface
- Supported target commands and functionsType 0 configuration space header
- Up to six base address registers.
- Memory read / write, memory read multiple, memory read line
- Target abort, target retry, target disconnect
- I/O read / write
- Medium speed DEVSEL timing
- Interrupt acknowledge
- PCI Configuration base registers are configurable from header file
