Important stuff:
QFN package
The typical hash power is ~12GH/s in rated mode.
There is a pin to initiate turbo clock ranges:
bs decides the operating mode. When bs=0, the range of core clock frequency is 200MHz-400MHz. When bs=1, the range of core clock frequency is 375MHz-750MHz.
Core Vdd, 0.55v~0.88v

Here are the preliminary recommended board dimensions for immersion cooling.
Anything goes with immersion, final decision up to the board designers discretion.

This is for the DataTank designs, which will be sitting in various data centers and ASIC hosting providers in the future.

Testing Results Of BE200
We've got the results of one good testing board,it seems not good,but sill can be accepted.We will receive more chips at next weekend if things are going well .
Results:
Board:one chip testing board
Frequency:360Mhz
Volt:0.72V
Hashrate per chip:11.52Ghash
Power consumption:6.375W per chip
Power consumption per Ghash:6.375/11.52=0.5539W/Ghash
After power supply changeover:0.5539/81% = 0.684W/Ghash（at blade）
Power consumption on wall:0.684/0.8 = 0.855W/G
Adding other components loss about 1KW/Thash
Tips:this result is not very accurate just for reference.

I'm slightly perplexed about this whole scenario. The new chip is without doubt a good idea, especially for the DIY crowd, but what I can't fathom is why prospective buyers would want to use these chips when their manufacturer has made it abundantly clear that they want to sell huge amount of them to 'mining operations with large PCB making capacity'? Surely this is going to dilute any potential future earnings - small players can never hope to compete on economies of scale here, and remember that $0.5/GH or thereabouts is only going to be available to 'huge' volume users.
What an actual system will cost to make will be a lot more.
The net result will be that the network hashing power will go through the roof, and only the big operators will be able to survive.

Some will have access to the appropriate tools and setup to be part of a group buy, get some chips, assemble, and get their miners online before the competition. They're betting that with the initial low cost, they will be ahead of the large scale DIY manufactures, who need to order massive amounts of parts, assemble, and deal with shipping, customer service, and etc and still make a profit.
Plus with KnC, CoinTerra, and HashFast going their current paths, what other alternatives do miners have?
Good points, my worry would be that by the time the smaller guys get sorted out, the big ones will be going full steam ahead. As for KNC and co, it will be interesting to see how (if) they respond.

I am interested to buy chips, is there a minimum quantity required ?
April 08, 2014, 10:06:40 PM
Comments?
The manufacturer may only sell large quantities directly but there's nothing to say a distributor won't. Will being able to purchase in large quantities be advantageous? Likely since anyone in the supply chain wants their piece of the pie.

We are assuming that they are AM BE200 samples, since they are in a 65 pad package (QFN64).
Specs are nice - 12GH at 4+ Watts
We sure could use another engineer!

Give us the final specs big cat!
Just the "specs" included nothing tested yet. We will let you know when we get that far. We will probably look at a quick turnaround USB module solution for testing called "Sting" maybe.
