    Through a USB Phy. I suggest you consider an FTDI device. Look at their "ft-x series full speed usb devices (http://www.ftdichip.com/ft-x.htm)" chips.

    Alternatively, depending on the bandwidth you require, you could consider using Altera's JTAG to AXI IP and simply use a USB-Blaster.

    Cheers,
