Are any smaller quantities of the chips available ie 30-100? id like to get some if they are.

Any status updates from people using these chips?

thanks Bestlymac,
The BOM and open sourced documents will be uploaded in two days.
All the file needed for a antminer S1 design will be uploaded.
Is there more detailed information about the chip's inner
workings available? So custom designs can be made?

When you get all the info you need I hope you will create a nice easy USB design

I did not see a document containing the chip protocol. Is it available?

@Bitmain: Is there a board design competition and would we get samples if there is a competition?

Bitmain i have sent you a email and am awaiting a response so we can get our group buy moving forward.
Thanks
Don't hesitate to layout and prepare the sample PCB, if you have already preview our documents. Thanks
All the documents will be uploaded to our github soon.
December 17, 2013, 03:12:23 AM
Sounds great. I just need the remaining info so the fabricator can give us a complete quote.

You probably want to make it modular so you can sell different speeds.
My concern with investing much in this chip is that it's not nearly as productive as the others coming out and less productive than others already out. The price is write and it may be useful for USB's.
How does the electrical efficiency compare with BitFury? Is it more productive per amp, or whatever.

or you can scale it down to avalon blade design and still get a decent miner with 4 modules that would hash at 360...
900 GH/s miner is a lot of chips.
Would be around 320 chips. December 16, 2013, 03:28:23 AM

Any idea about prices yet?
Yes we do have but this is currently internal use only and is only a rough idea based on estimates of the Wasp and Hive but only the schematics and BOM for the Wasp are done.
So we are unable to give a prototype cost breakdown as the Hive is still being worked on. Production would be January at the earliest and our plan is not to do pre-sales so it will be pop-up sales. Soon as there is stock they will go on sale and if we run out sales stop.
So pricing will be posted before New Year at the earliest I would think and set by the reseller, diy makers, the WPC if we do a larger production run or other fabricators who are licensed with us to produce the BM1380 Wasp. Prices probably will vary.

That datasheet is extremely limited. Do you have a timeline on an updated on with information on the communications protocol and register descriptions, as well as the firmware for the control board?
Agreed; the datasheet will need a little more detail for us DIYers. December 15, 2013, 11:27:21 AM
Design contest?
Sample chips?
32 sample chips are provided along with orders.Sample chips?
