Honored ContributorI have seen the external byte blasters I was just hoping to just put everything on the board like the bemicro so that I don't have to carry around a programmer to program it. Plus I usually do a lot of debugging, sometimes in different places, and I don't like carrying all of the extra stuff around. I would just like it to all be on one board...I would use the expansion connector but there are some surface mount parts, so if I have to make a board anyways, I would rather put it all on one board. I would be interested to know if a custom interface was made for the Bemicro or if it uses the normal altera interface, I assume they did something special because it requires some special drivers but I am not sure...anyways as far as the project I was hoping to interface it to a small camera sensor and make a little usb camera stick...ie I don't want it to be huge..I would like to use it for robotic vision in the future
Edit: removed useless comments :/ I am also surprised to find no cyclone series with a built in block for programming...considering that the fpga can emulate basically anything you would think they would add a programming "block" so that you could just hook up a single usb chip to interface to it...but that is just me. Anyways any help is appreciated thanks.
