Below is my post on lightfoots fixing and moding the Jupiter/Neptune/Titan thread (link below)


here is my 'sacrifice of a titan clone board'  idea....." likely to be shot down by lightfoot (and pics of KNC Oct Jupiter 550gh 4 port Beagle Bone Black Card) that I propose to attempt to mod
to a Titan 4 port board ..using the 'cloned titan bridge (1 of 10) sold on here recently.....for those interested below is the link

have a cube that I really NOW have to play with a Titan Cube and repaste/add fan/do the cut down main heatsink and small heatsink mods) that is slowly dying
2 dies slip sliding into oblivion...a tweak at a time every 2 weeks or so...currently at 200 and 250 ....

so hell may as well 'wreck' as much stuff as possible before these Titan's turn into doorstops......Fast an Furious ASIC version lol ) Smiley

here is the link to the pics/info and hopefully lightfoot will reply..those with the same old KNC OCT Jupiter/Saturn/Mercury 4 or 6 port boards you may still
have laying about..may want to see if anything like this is 'possible' or 'could work'

my own view (and some others here) is that KNC went as 'cheap ass as possible" and that ANY 4/6 port board from the 1st knc 2013 board to the last
WILL WORK with the cloned Titan or other Titan Bridges...in fact .my view further is (no proof..just guessing) is that you could get the proper 1 pin raspberry pi
sized pin cables (as others on here more tech savvy then me have proposed) and not need a titan clone bridge daughter board AT ALL just spaghetti the works
...if someone was to just map such out on both boards...again guessing ..but hey look at the firmware shortcuts they took with that and Glen Tarkin's major improvements
...it just plain imho could be that simple (or I could see a cloned titan bridge melt ...like the wicked witch of the east.....)

anyway enjoy...this ugly duckling will either become a Swan or Roast Duck imho Smiley

As a side note.how many folk have old Jupiter/Saturn/Mercury/Neptune boards on hand that they could use in this manner (assuming do'able ..big assumption)
