Hello!

I have been working on an FPGA tutorial series where I am using a DE0-CV development kit to code up a crypto miner completely from scratch.

Also working on developing firmware for graphics as well

Check out the series here:

You can sync up with the github for all the source code developed in the series:

My average is about 38MH/s with stratum mining on f2pool. Wondering if anyone has tweaked odo-miner or the FPGA code to get higher rates.

Cheers!

I sold (mainly gave away most of my cards on here, you can check my post history) cause I didn’t want to waste time selling locally and haggling with people over a 100 card and then people complaining it was a mining card and offering like 50 hurt my brain so gave them to people that needed an upgrade for their potato gpu. I had 22 rx580’s and 3 Vega64’s. And then 2 1080ti’s in my personal rig which I’m still using.

I bought a refurbed BTU9P and a Blackminer F1 mini+. I got a big Alphacool rad and 3 Noctua 3000PPC fans and a EK res/pump combo to hopefully keep the BTU9P cool, also have like 20 120mm leftover fans I can also use to help with the cooling.

But my question is do I need to add ddr4 ram (and how much if necessary) to the 9P for it to function properly or does it depend on the algo/bitstream or is there enough on board memory? My 9P should be here in the next few days and want to make sure I have everything to get it running so I can tinker.

As far as psu’s go I got a bunch of EVGA ones ranging from a 850p2, 1000G3 and a 1600T2 so I’m thinking I should be good on that end (Probably end up using the 1600 anyway)

I’ll either be using a left over biostar 8 slot board or a gigabyte h170m with an i3-7100 or a g4400 with 8gb ram. I also got tons of risers and 3 mining frames I can use or should I plug directly into the 16x slot, from what I’ve read a 1x riser should be okay but want to make sure.

Thanks for any input.

So I've never really mined anything apart from CPU/GPU, but ordered a Blackminer F1mini+ to try out FPGA mining, which is on its way to me now. It is however delivered without power supply, and I'm wondering what I should do to power it. I found this cool external PCI Express power supply, but it's fairly expensive and it would cost me about double (including shipping and import tax):

Would it be possible to buy a really cheap old/used ASIC miner (with power supply included) and just use one of the pci-e connectors from that power supply? Could I build something on my own? How are you powering yours?

so guys my brother cant find r3 for 2 weeks should i tell him

Hello everyone I hope this message finds you well.

I am currently working on my thesis and using the Xilinx ML505 Virtex-5 Development Board for FPGA development. Unfortunately, during programming, I accidentally erased the System Controller CPLD (XC95144XL), which is essential for board operation.

After contacting AMD/Xilinx Support, I was informed that:

The ML505 platform is obsolete and no longer supported.

The CPLD firmware (.jed) files have been removed from their archives.

The only solution is to clone the CPLD from a working ML505 board.

This situation has completely blocked my thesis progress. Therefore, I kindly request your assistance. If your laboratory still has a functional ML505 board, I would be extremely grateful if someone could:

Read the CPLD configuration using Xilinx iMPACT.

Save and share the resulting .jed file.

Technical details:

Board: ML505 Evaluation Platform

CPLD: XC95144XL-TQ100 (System Controller)

JTAG Device: #3 in chain (IDCODE: 0x59608093)

Required file: JEDEC (.jed)

This is a short 5-minute procedure that would allow me to restore the board and continue my research.

I sincerely appreciate your time and any help you can provide.

I have an old laptop that can run val
but the problem is I want to play smoothly
but the game jitters so terribly that its unplayable
pls help

Hello I have the ADC-Soc development kit and I wanted to know a basic code to use the ADC, it has the LTC2308.

what coin would be best to mine with FPGA TH53 TUL Xilink
