About BTCMiner
BTCMiner is a Bitcoin Miner software which allows you to make money with your ZTEX USB-FPGA Module. Since these FPGA Boards contain an USB interface no additional hardware (like JTAG programmer) is required and low cost FPGA-clusters can be build using standard USB hubs. Dynamic frequency scaling / overclocking based on error measurement, i.e. BTCMiner automatically chooses the frequency with the highest rate of valid hashes. One software instance can control many FPGA Boards (up to several hundreds, limited by the number of USB host controllers). New FPGA Boards can be added / removed during runtime. Possibility of enumeration of FPGA Boards and cluster partitioning using that numbers. Power save mode after 5min inactivity of per command. Temperature monitoring and overheat shutdown (USB-FPGA Module 1.15y rev. 2). Overheat protection by shutdown if error rate increase to much.
