Nice one burnin, you're nailing it.
Just 2 questions:
-Do you provide standoffs, or should i get them:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=234459.0
And if so, how high should they be?
-The CAN cable, do you provide, or must we build one? I searched for a DIY one but found no easy to do ones.

He will sell CAN on his site.

Thinking about posting a picture of the test rig, but it is a truly horrible mess of wires.
I don't want any of you to think the end-product could look even remotely similar to that thing.

Yeah. just post it already, im ready to fap.

PICS!!
...or it didn't happen?
Quit? Let the riot begin:
The Firmware is not yet production ready cgminer throws a shitton of errors on starting.
AND the chip currently runs at 128Mhz because its not properly cooled, i have tested it at 256mhz too and it works but its too hot for long tests.
Now the bad news:
I will very likely not get the boards tomorow so we have to wait until Monday.

What kind of hashrates do you see at 256mhz?
Should be 256MH/s
One (double) sha256 per tick...correct, for my long term tests i am running 128Mhash(Mhz).
Lovely job burnin. Really appreciate it. Thanks.
Also I have got some inquiries.
This is a quote from OP:
# CAN-Bus inter-module communication (Only one USB connection for up to 32 Modules)
and then in the very same post 7 lines and 2 pics down:
Stacking will be similar to the cairnsmore boards from Enterpoint.
The CAN-Bus module connection will allow modules to form a big cluster like the Avalon machines.
That way you need only one USB-Connection for up to 16 Modules, maximum bus-length >10 Mtr.

So the question is: how many modules you can connect over one USB?
Is it 16 or 32 modules?
And does it make any difference when the module is 10 or 20 chips?
Also as you said earlier...
I think i'll go for a ~850W, gold rated, single rail PSU perfect for one tower of 16 modules.
...I take it you meant 16 modules with 20 chips per module correct me if I'm wrong.
Also in that case (16 modules with 20 chips per module) what other cables (and how many) you need ?
Oh i really need to update that post!
Let me illustrate:
The 32 (10 Chip boards) / 16 (20 Chip boards) Limits comes from the maximum chip count in the Original Avalon units.
Because I use the same interface i currently stick to those numbers.
The protocol could support more, and i'll try to add support for even more then 32/16 but I can not guarantee it.
(CAN bus could be up to 30Meters long)
And the USB cable can be plugged in at any point on the bus. (Start, end, middle, somewhere)
I am currently working on the CAN protocol actually.

F*ck yeah! You are the man! My chips are ordered to you, need 31 boards of the Bitburner XX!
From my understandig it is maximum 16 boards (20 chips each) you can daisy chain by CAN Bus. So you need a ribbon cable with 16 connectors or less if you want to make smaller stacks. The bus connectors are 10 pin. For the first board of the stack you need a USB cable, micro USB connector on board side, to connect your stack to a PC, raspi, USB Hub or whatever. Besides you need a appropriate power supply, but that was already discussed here.

One (double) sha256 per tick... As we all know burnin is working with his custom design.
Would it be possible to connect few K16 boards and few burnins boards to the same PC?
I've made such two orders and now I wonder if I will have to run separate pc's to run them

Yes why not - in my opinion one of the best solutions is a Raspberry Pi with Minepeon.
Minepeon is a mining linux distribution for Raspberry Pi :-) ...perfect pre-loaded & configured with eveything you will need (cgminer, web-inf, config, ...).
In my case it worked within minutes - just load Minepeon on the SD-card as OS. Configure IP adress & pools, ready. It`s a nice quick & cheap solution what runs on low voltages & watts. For me it was too the best solution as you can buy 2 of them (about 20-30USD) and configure a clone as backup.
BURNIN - JUST AWESOME!!!!
Great work Burnin, that's an awesome result.

Just a reply I hoped for
Keep up the good work burnin, I have full confidence that you will overcome those obstacles.
btw. Monday is only few days away, so no biggie.
