VS3 i like your design and cant wait for NF2
I`m ordered 32 chips so have some to playing with it:D
How cgminer or bgminer detect  NF1/NF2 ?
are you planning  build more powerfull miner with more chips?

Hello

bfgminer will detect both.
cgminer as far as I know doesn't detect the NF2 (it detects only first chip so it will essentially behave as a NF1).

I am also working on a USB miner with more chips but that's a bit questionable design as you'll somehow need to provide 5V at 2-3A to the device (which a standard USB port can't do). So, we'll see where that ends.

so generally cgminer right now  dont support nf2 ?
Power is not a problem got  from LED boards some PSU 5V 120Amps:D
i`m trying how connect chips to get in chain with power, meantime wainting for samples chips

plenty of 5v & 12v here

There is a different bitfury USB stick that cgminer supports with 2 chips. It would be trivial to add support for the 2nd chip to the existing NF1 driver as well, but as always would need testing on real hardware.

How cgminer or bgminer detect  NF1/NF2 ?
are you planning  build more powerfull miner with more chips?

I'm working on a fork that's something like that.

Making my baby public

https://github.com/Taugeran/NFx

She's nowhere near as elegant as the NF1 or NF2 but that's what revisions are for. When I go home for lunch today I'll push a new commit that has some updates

I do not want high end pcb only working to study and in near future create my own modular miner (not for sale)
Thanx i will study that when you submit updates:)
Schematic is on kicad?

yes. schematic and board are in kicad. update pushed to github

Thanks i will study that tomorrow

where can these be bought if available?

where can these be bought if available?

Just to clarify, precrime3 is probably referring to the hex•fury.

( Original NanoFury-based products like the yellowjacket, hitchhiker and icefury can be purchased new from several sellers. )

[precrime3]

Yes thanks for clarification xD

[darkstormfwm]

Ok my study schematics is complete but got quick question.
Is 3A DC/DC Swithing regulator will be good for one chip?
i got plenty 3Amps regulators and LDO

Yes 3A is what is used in the NF1. The NFx is basically 10 NF1 relaid and interconnected

Awesome! :-)

From all pics on that album I think those are my favorite:
and

And just to add a minor detail - one of the factors that was considered during design was "The Overclocker"
So especially for those people I picked a really good heatsink - you can probably tell by the pictures already, but it's even more impressive when you see it in action!
In addition, it's a standard 40mm x 40mm one, so the extreme overclocker can even add a GPU fan (yup, some GPU cards use 40x40mm fans, powered by 5V - read USB will work! )

As for overall dimensions - the board is 40mm wide and 50mm tall and as for thickness it's approx 16mm (the tallest component on the front is the 4mm inductor and on the back the 10mm heatsink).


And as always - HAPPY HASHING! :-)

Oh - and thanks for the awesome pics!

Can you tellme what DC Conventer you use to supply those chips?
I`m build my own minner with modular chips but now stuck with power supply

[precrime3]

.2 btc per.... Bit pricy. Let me gather some finds xD

.2 btc per.... Bit pricy. Let me gather some finds xD

Just based on non-OC'd, USD/Ghash-wise, it's fairly competitive ($33), especially if you consider it overclocked ($25); Beaten only by the recent price drops on the Bi•Fury (also 2-chip, $27/$26), Yellowjacket (1-chip, $22) and AntMiner U1/U2 (1-chip, non-bitfury, ~$18 for either) products.  They all have other pros/cons, of course.
These figures do depend on things like bulk discounts (if you buy 500 AntMiners, the USD/Ghash more than halves - but who buys 500 AntMiners except for resale?  So I only included ones that can be individually purchased)

[precrime3]

I'm really looking for them 15 gigahashes, but it seems that they would be .6 btc each.

directly PM user Intron or user cscape (cant remember if there is a hyphen so may be c-scape) they designed them and may be willing to sell one privately

[precrime3]

I pm'ed intros, he said watch the forums, which I have been doing xD. No word yet.
