I want to send input to the USB port of the cyclone(FPGA) board with altera. Is there a megafunction applicable to altera?

I want to send / receive data from the host PC (Linux) to the FPGA board (Cyclone) using a USB cable.

Both the host PC and FPGA board have USB ports.

I am currently using Quartus Prime Standard Edition 17.1.

How can I change the value that Quartus Prime sent data from the host PC (Linux) to the FPGA board?

How should I set the FPGA side to receive as input?

Can I send data from the FPGA side to the host PC via the USB cable?

 

system architecture

raspberry pi == usb2.0 == usb male-male cable == usb2.0 == FPGA board

Hi,

 

May I know that do you have install USB driver on Linux? If no, there is a document that can help you to install the USB driver on Linux:

For more information about Programmer tool in Quartus, you can refer to the document as below;

This link can also help you to understand the procedure in program FPGA board:
