USB(CY7C68013) in Kit Stratix 3.

Hello,

In the Stratix 3 dev kit we have a CY7c68013 usb2.0 transceiver.

It is used for the configuration of the FPGA. I think that after program the FPGA, I can use the USB2.0 for data transfers.

I am right or not? Somebody has some references?

I have already worked with this chip CY7c68013, but I do not know what would be the interaction with the USB Blaster.

Thank you

DABG

    It really depends on the program inside the CY7 chip.

    I use that chip in a way that I can communicate with a host PC, and I can program the EPCS16 device via a ALTASMI_PARALLEL megafunction. I also use a ALTREMOTE_UPDATE megafunction to reconfigure the FPGA, so I can reboot and stuff.

    But that is the way my code works, so yes it is possible. But I do not know how the Stratix 3 kit works.
