Modular device rack
Revision as of 04:15, 23 August 2019 by Jeraldson (talk | contribs) (Changed wording since some users in Cylon thought that the device rack gave parallel computing ability to chips.)
Summary
Modular racks are primarily used to construct complex multi-chip systems out of YOLOL chips.
Basic information
- Minimal working configuration of modular device rack includes a single module rack and a socket core module
- Socket cores are needed to connect the device to a network
- Fits two chips, forming a basic compact way to store chips
- The rack parts can be plugged into each other from the sides, back, top, or bottom, enabling extension with multiple racks and different device modules
Modules
- There are currently four main modules
- Rack: Frame for attaching functional modules. Has plug connections for extending configuration to combine multiple racks
- Socket Core: Basic module with two chip slots and a cable socket for connecting to network
- Chip Core: Default computing module with three slots for chips
- Chip Reader: Alternate chip module for one chip in a configuration that allows editing and monitoring
Rack
- Bolts to the frame of the ship or to other rack modules from the top and bottom
- The core of any modular rack combination
- Device modules plug into the slot in the rack
- Racks connect to other racks from 5 sides: sides, top, bottom, back
Socket core
- Fits inside the rack
- Two YOLOL chip slots
- One socket for cabling
Chip core
- Three YOLOL chip slots
Chip reader
- One YOLOL Chip indent with chip facing the user
- Allows live editing of chips connected to a rack network.
