@awkwardgoogle Isn't this exactly how the Samsung S26 screen works?

Packing thousands of straws together basically creates a low-tech pixel screen. Each straw acts as an independent light pathway, perfectly mimicking how data channels work.

@AJovemVegana @fuzziphy If you provide the address, it can be delivered to

@LiuYu7809 @fuzziphy Or rather, where could you ship to?

This thing showed up from eBay.. A decommissioned FPGA from alibaba. They have a Xilinx Ultrascale+ XCKU3P in them that the chip alone sells for $3k on DigiKey. 356k logic cells, 26Mbit block ram, 16x32.75Gbps transceivers, and 1368 DSPs. They have an x8 PCIe connector, two SFP+ cages, and a clearly marked JTAG header. And as @lauriewired pointed out, they are supported by the free version of Vivado

@AJovemVegana @fuzziphy No problem, it can work normally.

@AJovemVegana @fuzziphy I'm in China. These are eliminated from Alibaba servers. Most of those on eBay are also from the second-hand market in China, which are very cheap.

@LiuYu7809 @fuzziphy Nice, are they all working? Where in EU are you?

@AJovemVegana @fuzziphy I have a few. Are you interested?

@fuzziphy Man, where can I find these in Europe? Would be fun to tinker with.

@fuzziphy this？

Have some blinking LEDs in there

@ivanvnucec @fuzziphy These things are very cheap in the second-hand market in China.

@fuzziphy For what price did you buy it?

@GuoShenCN7 BTC try一try

Is anyone interested in these things? Second-hand accelerator cards discarded by Alibaba, with chips from Xilinx. FPGA

@AlicanKiraz0 How much did you pay to get an AMD Alveo U50 FPGA?

AMD Alveo U50 FPGA sistem için parçaları aldım, birazdan toplamaya başlıyorum 🔥🦾

@technowizard369 I can help you find these inexpensive computing cards in the Chinese market.I can help you find these cheap computing cards in the Chinese market; we have many of these obsolete server devices here.

@LiuYu7809 Just upload it into my brain

Everybody is crazy about CPU/GPU's but nobody is talking about FPGA, or even know what a Configurable Logic Block for Field-Programmable Gate Array chips is:

@technowizard369 I can offer you several Alibaba computing cards.

@LiuYu7809 Sure, if I can use it.

@Vicharak_In The chip is from Xilinx.

@Vicharak_In Some people are interested in these things, but I have no idea how to use these acceleration cards.

Most students start with tutorials. The ones who stand out build the tools that everyone else wishes they had. Shrike-Fi is not just another dev board. It’s a challenge: Can you build something most people think needs expensive hardware? Decode UART. Sniff CAN traffic. Analyze SPI in real time. Create your own custom protocols. All on an open-source ESP32 + FPGA platform. The next generation of hardware engineers won’t just use tools. They’ll build them. What will you create with Shrike-Fi? #ShrikeFi #FPGA #ESP32 #EmbeddedSystems #LogicAnalyzer #OpenSourceHardware #ElectronicsEngineering #StudentProjects #HardwareHacking #MakersGonnaMake #IoT #DigitalDesign #EngineeringStudents #ArduinoIDE #BuildInPublic #HardwareDeveloper #PCBDesign #Innovation #Vicharak #FutureEngineers

@technowizard369 I can provide it to you.

@LiuYu7809 I will take one!

@technowizard369 Follow my x account

@technowizard369 The chip is from xilinx.

@technowizard369 I have several Alibaba calculation cards in my hand. I don't know much about them. Does anyone need them?

@gobeige @lauriewired How much does this calculation card cost?

@lauriewired I created an extension board specifically to utilise the available io and to route it to two pmods - some modifications required.

The hardware in old Chinese cloud accelerator cards never fails to impress me. If you go on Chinese ebay (idlefish) you can get a Xilinix UltraScale FPGA for ~$50 USD. For perspective, the same raw chip is currently ~$2,100 on Mouser.
