Title: Universal Hash Board: Bitmain 1384 "UHB_BM1384"

The "Universal Hash Board Standard" first introduced here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1542603.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1542603.0)
Is now being applied to Bitmain's BM1384 for learning purposes.
It is our goal to apply this preliminary standard to as much hardware
as possible to make sure it can accommodate all possible
small ASIC string designs.

Edit: The PCB layout needs rework after a few changes to the dimensions of the PCB and some small changes to the schematic.
          Files will be updated as soon as its complete. Done! Links updated as of 08/22/16

Looking for help. Anyone have some dead hardware they can donate to this cause? Looking for dead hash boards and controllers for
AVALON 6, S7 and S9.

Thanks for all the positive criticism.

Final changes have been made to this board and the links in OP have been updated.
Hopefully it will be of use for anyone looking to do anything with S5 Bitmain miners.
There was a wealth of information learned about bitcoin mining hardware while working on this.

Avalon 6 is next!

Thanks for checking it out! 8)

Pretty cool,but....why are you wasting your time & energy on this,no one will ever get ANY chips from ANYONE & the miner makers won't use your layout anyhow  ::)

BTW,only 2 ASIC companies left AFIK,Bitmain & BW,maybe Avalon.Doubt they have any interest in your designs.....sorry  :(
