Is it possible to establish a serial communication between host Pc and a Cyclone iii using the usb port on the board (De0 terasic) ?

Hi everybody, I' m using a De0 board with a Cyclone iii FPGA; I need to feed data( 16 bit ) from my PC to a block-ram inside the FPGA. Is it possible to use the same usb port used to configure the FPGA or is there another possible way?

    Hi,

    It is possible. You need to include JTAG to Avalon Master IP and connect it to block ram for you to update the 16bit data.
