8 years agoI think Signaltap is going to struggle. JTAG has a lot of overhead associated with it and you're trying to recover @ 1Mbsp of raw data.
If you're not already you could try running your JTAG chain faster. See: "how do i change the clock frequency of the usb-blaster ii download cable? (https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/knowledge-base/solutions/rd06242013_922.html)". Beyond that, I think you're going to have to come up with a more ingenious solution. Buffering - yes. But for how long do you want to "continuously get data"? JTAG will remain a bottleneck (assuming that's the issue) in a continuous scenario, regardless of any buffering. Cheers, Alex
