Honored ContributorData from FPGA to Ethernet
Hello All, I followed an ethernet tutorial, but there it uses on-chip memory with 2 SGDMA. In this, I think I can send data from Nios to ethernet and ethernet to Nios. But I would like to send...

Honored Contributor --- Quote Start --- I want to use ethernet to send data from FPGA to PC and PC to FPGA via NIOS. --- Quote End --- Where exactly does the data come from? Since it's already on fpga it should be straightforward for Nios to read it and sent it to ethernet. As I said before, I guess the data is stored into registers or onchip ram; in this case you only need share it or provide dual port access and connect to Nios data bus. If your data comes from any other source, like a serial port or PIO, you only need to add the proper interface component in Qsys and, again, connect to Nios on the other side.
