Altera / Intel USB-Blaster™ Downloadkabel

Alteras USB-Blaster™ Downloadkabel verbindet einen USB-Port an einem Host-Computer mit einem Altera® FPGA, der auf einer Leiterplatte montiert ist. Das Kabel schickt Konfigurationsdaten vom PC zu einem Standard-Header mit 10-Pins, der mit dem FPGA verbunden ist. Sie können das USB-Blaster-Kabel nutzen, um iterativ Konfigurationsdaten in ein System herunterzuladen während des Prototypings oder Daten in das System zu programmieren während der Produktion.
