Would MrTeal or ChipGeek be willing to share a cad/pdf/vector file of the board. I wouldn't want all the traces or chip info or anything else propietary I just want the outline, hole locations, size of the area that needs cooling and where NOT to put pressure on the board (even thru foam). (For instant's it looks like there is an array of small something's near the center of the board on back. Should we avoid them or can they be barried in foam and a backing plate )
Just trying to cad out my holders and back plates to laser out or print.
Thanks

The area of the ASICs that needs to be cooled is at least 35mm x 35mm (IE, your heatsink bottom should be that large to contact all the ASICs.
The small somethings under the board are just pads where extra decoupling caps could have went if needed. There's no parts there, so just don't short them out with metal and you're good.
For where to add extra cooling, underneath the mosfets (the small black rectangle towards the edge from the grey inductors) are the most important.
Perfect! Thank you :-)
