I'll take them all (100)!

Patience. I have been asked this all over again and there is a queue of folks that need some more chips to get their mining boards fully populated.

I will have some more chips to offer shortly, preparing an official announcement soon.

I would be in for 6 to fill out a 16 board.. ordered in the first batch ..

Awesome, I'm glad you kept track of that. I'm pretty confident I was in an early request for 10 more chips Smiley

Thanks again for everything sir!

Ditto that, I think I need another 10.

It is sample chip from batch #1.
Thank you, zefir!

Shipping payment:

I was in first batch also, are these being distributed now?
No these are sample chips for developers.

Keep in mind that chips going to real production facilities need to be packed appropriately. Hopefully there is some indications on the final trays you receive. It varies from part to part but often they need to be kept sealed and/or containing silica gel to prevent moisture absorption. This won't matter for prototyping but for production reflow moisture content can cause problems. I know some of my chips arrived from Mouser with statements they should not be open-air for more than 160 hours before reflow.

Just as a hint it would be a good idea to bake them before the assembly as the ICs are probably moisture sensitive and Avalon's samples package was one of the worst ever seen in the IC industry without any silica gel or airtight packing at all, at least that's how we've received them. Failure in doing so may develop failures during soldering due the package crackings.

BFL has lowered the cost of their ASIC by almost half.

Thats a smart move. Probably no one bought. Half the price is an advantage even when you would have to wait 1 third longer than for avalon chips.

If you can get a working pcb and cooling solution.
I guess thats more complicated than with the avalon chips.


Im not so sure that its very much more complicated. The only thing probably will be the more heat that needs to be dissipated. But getting the hashpower for the half price is a good thing. At least we know the chips are working too.
But all the development has to start first. All devs are already in creating avalon miners yet.
