Honored ContributorHey,
Does anyone knows how i can interface my fpga de0-nano board with a dekstop pc and send data from the g-sensor to hyper terminal through rs232 ? please if somebody knows how to do this.....help me !!!!!
Honored ContributorThere are no RS232 drivers on the DE0-nano. However, you can order cables from Digikey that contain FTDI FT2232 USB-to-Serial converters. These converters use logic level outputs, not RS232, so you can plug them directly on the 100mil headers on the DE0-nano.
C232HD, 1.8m, 3.3V logic levels: http://search.digikey.com/us/en/products/c232hd-ddhsp-0/768-1011-nd/2767783 C232HM, 0.5m, 3.3V logic levels: http://search.digikey.com/us/en/products/c232hm-ddhsl-0/768-1106-nd/2714139 These are virtually identical cables; the difference is the length. Alternatively, you can use the USB-Blaster as a communications interface: http://www.alterawiki.com/wiki/using_the_usb-blaster_as_an_sopc/qsys_avalon-mm_master_tutorial Cheers, Dave
