The PCI bus is quite complicated and you probably wouldn't want
to design a PCI peripheral starting from the specifications.  A
number of companies make PCI bus interface chips.  Among them:

	http://www.amcc.com/Products/Pci/
	http://www.plxtech.com/products/index.html
	http://vcubed.com/products/index.htm

And all the large FPGA vendors sell FPGA "macros" that you can
use if your design already includes an FPGA.
