I'm still trying to get my second Chili back up and reliable. Right now, it stops talking to cgminer/bfgminer after 2-8 minutes and needs to be powered off/on and the miner restarted to resume mining. Rinse and repeat. I've posted the errors earlier (
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=304250.msg4557778#msg4557778). Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
So far, I've tried: reflashing the the 1.1v-limited firmware, reflowing the FTDI chip, reseating a nearby small SMD capacitor that might have gotten dislodged, but so far still unstable. Before I had the pin 5-6 shorting mishap (hit an adjacent pin at the same time during a reset, trashing my FTDI chip), it was pretty solid, though I did have to reset it about once a day. Replaced the FTDI chip with a new one, programmed it (thanks Mr. Teal!), and was back hashing, but never stable or even usable.
Help?
