Are you still continuing this? If not, do you have plans to open source this?

i can upload the source files if you'd like. I discontinued with a 4 chip version due to sizing constraints of the fab house i use, and the fact that i got an M-board from a third party dirt-cheap and some cards to go in it.

 As well, some calculations showed that it would have needed a heatsink which i was trying to avoid (for component placement reasons).

2 is fully possible. 3 with some effort. 4 in that small an area with only 2 layer pcb needs a heatsink for optimal performance and longevity.




in its place, for some bitfury ASICS i ordered, i have almost fully developed the NFx (its a link).


reply letting me know if you would still like me to gitorize the PiFury schematics and board files as they sit. (No new progress since last update)
