The application required uncommitted IO lines to be driven as PWM
signals, although I guess since the system bus will be lots faster than
my PWM signals, some addressable latch register could probably do what I
need. The only thing to check, was that I could ensure I got reasonable
latency on the bus.
The PWM signals are to be generated from the FPGA, so it all sounds a
little dodgy though... presumably the CPU is "master" of the bus
normally?

Its good, thanks.
