So could someone clarify:
The way to control the 8 chip boards is by plugging into a miniplane?
Then what does the miniplane plug into?
How are these controlled? Standalone?
a single 8 chip board I believe gets power from a 4pin molex connector, and plugs into USB to connect to your pc/rpi
if you have multiple 8 chip boards, you can get the miniplane to connect up to 4 of them to ATX power connector, and then USB to your pc/rpi
they dont plug into the network like the block erupter blades do..
