uSING jtag-UART to stream data into Memory

I want to use JTAG-UART to stream data into a SRAM, and I was trying to use DMA to do it , is it possible thinking in this direction. If an example exists can you point me to that Thanks

Do you have a CPU in your system? The Jtag Uart isn't so fast, so a DMA isn't really necessary. The CPU can pick up each byte and write it to RAM.

If you don't have a CPU, I'd recommend to use the JTAG to Avalon Master Bridge Core instead.
