Sir, you still haven’t given me an example of an alternative controller, and I have no idea if it even applies here. nostr:npub1ql2zzp3g6yndgz05js7wdc4qkr88wkyne5nw2cc7csrtzqs0yeesgwrxya is this possible?

are you trying to be difficult or are you incapable of using a web search engine

yes it has a wifi interface too
Features
- ESP32-S3-WROOM-1 wifi microcontroller on board
- TI TPS40305 buck regulator steps down the 5V input to power the BM1366
- Maxim DS4432U+ current DAC digitally adjusts the BM1366 core voltage from 0.04V to 2.4V
- TI INA260 power meter measures the input voltage and current of the miner
- Microchip EMC2101 PWM controls the fan and monitors tach output. BM1366 doesn't support die temp, but we have it placed super close to the ASIC so we can use the internal temp feature.
- 0.91" SSD1306 OLED I2C Display Module
i see at least 6 separate chips in this list
the ESP32 is the thing that will have a firmware, the other parts look like mostly nonconfigurable dumb components
also, ugh, i hate wifi, just another extra thing that is gonna not work, and it has an on-board processor that is fancy enough to run a 15 year old version of android
i also see there hasn't been any updates to it in 2 months, by the repository
there must be forums to discuss issues with them, probably guys who are hacking them, who may be able to answer your questions
complaining to me about this is not going to fix your problem
i'd just get a timer switch that turns it off 15 minutes a day and forget about it if it runs all day ok like that, or maybe make it turn off twice, 3 or 4 times a day to be sure
Yeah I searched and found that information but it doesn’t match what you’re saying about usb serial connections and alternative controllers, which you still haven’t clarified. It seems like you’re resorting to being a dick because you decided to search yourself after providing relatively useless information.
But, please queen, do go on.
