Topic: Gridchip 40nm BTC ASIC chips (btcman) (Read 15370 times)
If I'm not mistaken with my sources, laser systems capable of 11nm lithography are already deployed to major chip mfg('s)... but that does not mean you should expect 11nm anytime soon. They may still want to milk the public of all they can at the next larger architectures before obsoleting their product
Also interested. Good luck
My first thought reading this is "Awesome ! More competition entering Bitcoin space".
My second thought is "Come on, rest of the world ! Why is Shenzhen seemingly the only place that has it's act together (relatively speaking) ? It's starting to be embarrassing !"
*mumbles something about wanting to buy American and how that's worked out for him so far*
Fixed
uhh ok... I guess the wages in foxconn was so good that out of excitement they decided to jump off roofs...

The suicide rate amongst Foxconn workers is lower than the national average. People queue up to try to get a job there.
Interesting.
Will keep posted on this.

40nm sounds cool.
Is this the smallest possible at this point in time??

KnCMiner claims 26nm

KnCMiner claims 28nm
EDIT: changed 26 to 28 as pointed out below
Hashrate of a single chip is largely irrelevant. A board with 1 large chip or a board with 10 small chips are not significantly different.
Delivery dates, cost, and power consumption are the key factors.

Why are Gridchip's 40 nm chips suckier than BFL's 65 nm chips?
are you refering to the power consumption?HASHRATE
And the 40nm chip hash rate will be 2-2.5G

Chips incoming.
Are you saying we'll be able to start throwing money at Gridchip's 40nm ASIC soon ? Or are you referring to the Avalon 110nm chips being imminently available ?
Chips incoming.

最近台积的产能似乎有些紧。

Recent TSMC's production capacity seems a bit tight.
The miners in stock on hand happy

the second:

TSMC's production capacity is the butterfly wings
I suspect "the butterfly wings" is an idiom - guessing by the previous quote it is probably to say that their free capacity has gone with the wind.. just a guess though.

TSMC manufacturing capacity is quite full.
Those with miners already in hand should be happy
My interpretation: difficulty won't rise as fast as you would think

Sorry, do you mind to provide some context for me? I feel kinda lost right now.
OP talks about a team which was part of Avalon's dev crew and plans to release a 40 nm chip and I think you are a board developer for Avalon chips. And you post pictures of a really huge amount of Avalon chips. I don't get the connection, yet..?
I'm sure those aren't Gridchip's 40 nm chips, so my best guess: their are all yours and you do more than delivering PCBs, but complete mining boards. But that would rise the next very important question: did Avalon begin to ship the chips and you already received them?
Based on Gridchip's post:
- Gridchip designed the 110nm chip for Avalon.
- Now,Gridchip is working on 40nm chip,so there is no 40nm chip now.
- And Gridchip want to do the sell (40nm chip) directly,not with Avalon any more.
- Gridchip post those picture to prove what he said.
- There MAYBE some delay because TSMC is busy,just MAYBE.
- And the 40nm chip hash rate will be 2-2.5G
do you know how to contact him?
