1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Official Open Source FPGA Bitcoin Miner (Last Update: April 14th, 2013) on: July 09, 2013, 12:00:25 AM
dose anyone know if there is a program for a mppa board ? i have a ambric am2040 mppa board that has 340 processing cores and wanted to use this for bitcoin mining i was told if i can get it up and running it could do about 18g/hash's but im new to the programming and fpga area and have only used gpu to mine any help would be appreciated

hey i bought this borad its its like the fpga board but just more processing cores and was used for the fallowing just wondering if there is anyway to find out how to set this up for bitcoin mining here are some wiki specs The Am2045 device has 336 32-bit RISC-DSP fixed-point processors and 336 2-kB memories, which run at up to 300 MHz. It has an Eclipse-based integrated development environment including editor, compiler, assemblers, simulator, configuration generator, source-code debugger and video/image-processing, signal-processing, and video-codec libraries.

Power and Performance[edit]

The Am2045 delivers 1 TeraOPS (Operations Per Second) and 50 Giga-MACs (Multply-Accumulates per second) of fixed-point processing with 6-12W of power consumed (dependent on the application).


Applications[edit]

Ambric's MPPA devices were used for high-definition, 2K and 4K video compression, transcoding and analysis, image recognition, medical imaging, signal-processing, software defined radio and other compute-intensive streaming media applications, which otherwise would use FPGA, DSP and/or ASIC chips. The company claimed advantages such as higher performance and energy efficiency, scalability, higher productivity due to software programming rather than hardware design, and off-the-shelf availability.
Video codec libraries were available for a variety of professional camera and video editing formats such as DVCPRO HD, VC-3(DNxHD), AVC-Intra and others.

i was told it could be done but since i have only done gpu mining im new to fgpa setups any help is appreciated
