H Folks, I need to send an image from my laptop to the fpga, fpga will run a FIR and then I need to receive the filtered image back again to my laptop.
Basically I need to understand the mechanism to send and receive the image, what type of cable and connector is required, to what fpga ports should I have to connect my laptop, in general all the information related to the serial communication TX and RX between my laptop with the data to be processed by the fpga. Really appreciated any doc, url or info. Thanks! :confused:Link Copied

The DE0-nano has a built-in USB-Blaster, so you can use that for transfers, eg., read this tutorial
http://www.alterawiki.com/wiki/using_the_usb-blaster_as_an_sopc/qsys_avalon-mm_master_tutorial If that is too slow for your needs, then you'll have to look at building an adapter board to connect to something faster. Eg., an FTDI FT232H device in FIFO mode ... see https://www.ovro.caltech.edu/~dwh/correlator/pdf/ftdi.pdf http://www.digikey.com/catalog/en/partgroup/ft232h-evaluation-board-um232h/15430 Though I haven't seen a kit that would just allow you to plug this sort of board (the UM232H module) into a DE0-nano, but it would be easy to make one ... Cheers, Dave
