A/D converter-FPGA-USB

Hello, can anybody provide some basic idea to get digital data from A/D converter(HSMC) into cyclone IVE fpga and pass it into computer via USB port. Thanks in advance

I am using ADA_HSMC instead of GPIO as my daughter card only support HSMC.

Although using HSMC it doesn't make any difference to GPIO while capturing signal with Signal Tap if pin is mapped for HSMC instead of GPIO. Isn't it??

As far as the FPGA is concerned, the two interfaces are the same; they connect to pins on the FPGA.

You can use SignalTap in both cases.

Cheers,
