As I can make my card is compatible with linuxcnc? My card have a FPGA Spartan-6 with a PCI controller embedded and a DDR2 memory to general purpose.

Thanks for replying,

I read Emc2HardwareDesign but its few deep with respect to pci interface. I need more information about pci card compatible with linuxcnc (Hardware Structure, Data transfer, Programming Drivers, etc).

You for more detail, you could take a look at the existing device drivers in the tree
(theres a skeleton HAL driver as well)

This is in src/hal/drivers

For these to exist on your local machine you would need to install the development package

or just browse the files in the git repository:

git.linuxcnc.org/gitweb?p=linuxcnc.git;a...fs/heads/v2.5_branch
