With one exception (the resolver interface), all Hostmot2 modules are 
avalilable on all FPGA cards. Thats is, other than the top level interface 
(PCI,EPP,SPI,Ethernet,Serial) the firmware is identical for all cards. The 
5I25/6I25 configurations tend to use sserial external interfaces to save pins 
since they only have 17 pins available per connector.

There are stepgen and PWM configurations for the 5I25/6I25 (see 7I85SPx2.pin), 
and almost any combination of available modules is available (with the limit 
of 34 total pins of course)
