Transferring data via USB on ML-310

Started by Hen October 19, 2005
I want to use the USB port of the ML-310 to transfer data out to the
computer. Is this possible ?

How can I access the Ali South Bridge from the FPGA (i.e. in my top
Schematic program) ?  

How does the computer itself communicate with the board. Would the
computer require a specific driver? Is there any DLL for Ali South Bridge
?

Thanks

The USB port on the ML310 is set up as a host. AFAIK, USB cables exist 
that allow for a host to host transfer.

The ALI south bridge (and USB) is supported with Linux running on the 
PPC inside the Virtex-II Pro FPGA.

Instead of USB you might want to use the UART or the Ethernet port (with 
a cross-over cable) to transfer your data.
