Just finally released my java Icarus miner (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/rg7miner-icarus-fpga-board-miner-65933). Maybe ngzhang can give it a try with his fpga army Grin I'm curious if it can handle that much boards.

 Grin Wow.. maybe it's time for a bigger desk.

I really like the new oversized fan that also cools down the board.

hi, everyone.

thank you for your patience.

i'm doing the test work for 2 days. i found that is something shocking.

Hello Ngzhang,

3rd batch will ship with V3 bitsteam, same as 2nd batch.
the reason is, 200M bitsteam has a 1% average error rate. and 190M is 0.06%. and it's really soooooooo much heat for this kind of chip package. it's not recommend for run a risk for only 5%.
...

Yes, I also prefer to have something long term stable running 24/7; instead of having something with 5% more performance and after 6 months it is out of order... Sad

So keep up the good work and always be on the "save side"... Smiley

Looking forward to my 30 boards soon...

Cu,

about the copper cylinder. i bought 200 for them. about 0.13$ each stick.

the  fan is sunon kde1205pfv2 now. Cheesy
Vapo Bearing, 4300rpm, low noise.

Cool, but does it have the same thermal dissipation cpacity as the previous one or more? I'm also wondering if the new Icarus boards will run at a higher clock rate.

According to digikey this new fan has a CFM rating of 11.0.

And you did not answer my question in regards to the stands :p So..umm, any idea where I might find them? I found shorter ones, but none so long as the ones in your picture.

3rd batch production is started. i got 5 of them for test, because there are some BOM change.



a small 1.9G rig. @ 100W

until now, no problem. Cheesy

Very nice, I can't wait!  Grin

Hey you think you can sell me those metal stands as well? I'd like to eventually stack mine just like you Smiley

Edit: Also is it me or is the stock fan bigger now?

any version of icarus bitsteam after V2 is compatible. at least support now V2~V4 function.
i may add some new features in the bitsteam in the future, but they will be at least compatible with now V2~V4 bitsteams.

the bug fixed yesterday. now cgminer works fine with Icarus. source code:
  https://github.com/xiangfu/cgminer/tree/icarus

steps on how co compile under Linxu:
 $ git clone git://github.com/xiangfu/cgminer.git
 $ cd cgminer
 $ git checkout -b icarus origin/icarus
 $ ./autogen.sh && ./configure --enable-icarus --disable-opencl --disable-adl && make
 $ sudo make install

Thank you, xiangfu! Nice work.

This cgminer works with any version of the icarus bitsteam?


I am using a V3 bitstream when I wrote those code. it should be works fine with all bitstream. the V3 will return only one nonce. V4 is much better. it will retrun 0 ~ 2^32 nonce. but for now the code will only take care only one nonce.

@ngzhang
what is the format of the V4 nonces? is there some char slip them? or just  8bits nonce by 8bits nonce?

also it works fine under OpenWrt on TP-LINK 1043ND router. the OpenWrt packages is under:
