Methods, systems, and computer program products for using direct memory access (DMA) to initialize a programmable logic device (PLD) are provided. A method includes manipulating a control line of the PLD to configure the PLD in a programming mode, receiving PLD programming data from a DMA control at a DMA speed, and writing the PLD programming data to a data buffer. The method also includes reading the PLD programming data from the data buffer, and transmitting the PLD programming data to a programming port on the PLD at a PLD programming speed.
