EE received chips thank you gentlemen:

Quote

from H. Qin, of Shenzhen Shenkelong Ltd, in business zone of the PRC.

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!

Dang!

Anyone interested in working with our team please contact me via pm or email.

Awesome news. Been waiting a long time, thought these chips a long were coming while back, but always knew that FC would deliver a great product when they did come at last.

Sample chips received. They are real.

So what is the difference between the sample chips and the real thing? How far aware from the real thing does this mean we are?

This is basically "the real thing". When you design chips, you have to spend a lot of money and time before you get the first real chips and can be sure, they actually work the way they should. A rough outline showing the importance of the news: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.5968245
Afterwards you can order them en masse. Production of a batch takes about a month or more.

So we're still about a month out before they're ready?

Before mass production, yes.

Very very good! Care to provide some photos?

Are you able to test the chips in any way or are you "only" in for the reselling?

Yes, more details please! Are you able to test them?

Canary or me? I don't know my way around electrical engineering enough to test them, unfortunately. Plus, I'm located in Europe.

But I believe even if Canary isn't able to test them, he received them in order to encourage him - as a major AM reseller - to start a group buy. I guess the most important figures designing PCBs and miners also received samples or are in contact with AM in order to receive some. Hence I'm not worried that the relevant people haven't received any chips.
