Will you provide some kind of PSU at cost or at least some recommended models? Is there an easier way to power these boards that are stacked besides having one PSU for every board?

(Rounding up) 1 btc for 10 chips, and 1 more btc for the assembly, so about 2 btc for 2.82 gh/s, with July delivery?

Awesome!

would you have a rough cost on how much the pcb themselves would cost each?

What does one get for said 80 eur?

Assembled board+cooling solution+software.

What do you provide that costs 80 eur apart from manufacturing a bunch of boards based on the avalon reference design?
Please explain, I'm a bit confused.

This is a new development from scratch, it isn't based on their reference design,
since that isn't out yet and won't be for another 2 weeks.

This is an open-source project, the sources will be released when the product ships.

Does that include the PCB design files?  What else?

Is there the possibility to buy just the blank PCBs from you, and gather the rest of the components and assemble them ourselves?

Blank PCB's will also be available. 
Source release will include PCB-design, BOM and controller sources.


This looks promising, do you own a company or do you do this by yourself as a private person?
I'm in the process of founding a company for this and future projects.

if we could have the breakdown of the BOM, labor, heat sink , fan, pcb and usb connector  would be great. if someone order 500 chip they will need to
have 50pcb x 80 Euro? 4000Euro on your part? since he is ordering so many pcb and other parts would they be some kind of a quantity discounts?

Also please don't speculate with shipping dates already.

Maybe we should start a chip group buy in Germany?
Otherwise we might pay unnecessary tax. China-->Switzerland-->Germany-->all user outside EU.
If there is demand for it I would make myself available.

Q: Where are you based?
A: Germany

And zefir is Switzerland... great... so if the chips arrive there is not much risk left regarding postage that is insecure and allows random persons to change the delivery address...

I decided to move my project from the DIY thread to prevent mixups with the other DIY projects.

Product Description:
# 10/20 Avalon chip module - 2.82/5.56 Ghash/s nominal speed, massive overclocking possible
# 4 Layer thermally enhanced PCB
# PIC32 native USB-Controller
# CAN-Bus inter-module communication (Only one USB connection for up to 32 Modules)
# Power Connectors: 6Pin VGA, barrel jack for wallwart, power-stacking-connector.
# Power requirement: ~20/40 Watts @ 12V
# Onboard 60A(80A) switcher for core voltage
# Easy stacking option
# Host protocol: Avalon emulation
# Temperature controlled Fan

Order Website: www.burninmining.com

Stacking will be similar to the cairnsmore boards from Enterpoint.
The CAN-Bus module connection will allow modules to form a big cluster like the Avalon machines.
That way you need only one USB-Connection for up to 16 Modules, maximum bus-length >10 Mtr.
Adequate cooling solution will be provided.
The host protocol will be an emulation of the Avalon host protocol.
Mining Software will be cgminer.
This is an open-source project, the sources will be released when the product ships.

Ordering and Pricing Info:
i offer only an assembly service this means you have to buy the Chips yourself and have them send to me for assembly.

I assemble for anyone that wants Avalon chips turned into Mining boards.
I work closely with these group buys:
Zefir (order window closed)
ragingazn628 (order window closed)
SebastianJu (closed)
www.asic-chips.com

Zefirs sale thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/closed-avalon-asic-chip-distribution-177827
SebastianJu's: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/group-buy-avalon-asic-chips-sebastianju-batch-6-ordered-closed-187660


>> you have to be able to sign messages with address used for the payment of the chips!<<

How will the ordering work?
You order from your distributor and tell him you want your chips to be assembled by me, this usually requires a signed message.
Then the Distributor will ship the chips directly to me for assembly.
Head to www.burninmining.com and place your assembly order.
As a second Verification step I need a signed message that contains the delivery address of you order.
The instructions for that will be send via email and posted in this thread.

A how2 for the signing process with bitcoin-qt can be found here:
