Title: 40 nm ASIC coming, designed by those claiming to be behind the scene of Avalon Post by: brucesewell on July 09, 2013, 04:52:31 PM You guys should really take a look at those photos.
Now a new team claims that they will be designing 40 nm ASIC chips. They even claim that Yifu outsourced the design of Avalon to them, with those photos: http://www.btcman.com/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=4621&extra=page%3D1&page=4 Title: Re: 40 nm ASIC coming, designed by those claiming to be behind the scene of Avalon Post by: ipxtreme on July 09, 2013, 04:58:17 PM cant see the photos. login needed?

Title: Re: 40 nm ASIC coming, designed by those claiming to be behind the scene of Avalon Post by: Bitcoinorama on July 09, 2013, 06:09:39 PM So does this mean Avalon's bulk chip orders are good to go?
Title: Re: 40 nm ASIC coming, designed by those claiming to be behind the scene of Avalon Post by: kevinm on July 09, 2013, 06:30:55 PM So does this mean Avalon's bulk chip orders are good to go? I would say not, note the shipping labels on the large boxes, they say HongKong, so likely these have been shipped from Taiwan to HongKong and onto Shenzhen to be made into AVALON units. These are typical of the type of photos that a Quality Control Inspector from AVALON would take at TSMC during Final inspection Ex-Works or possibly by Chinese Customs and Excise on arrival in China. I would take a stab at the former. Shame there are no dates to be seen on the packaging. cheers, kev Title: Re: 40 nm ASIC coming, designed by those claiming to be behind the scene of Avalon Post by: Loredo on July 09, 2013, 06:36:14 PM This thread is even more murky than the one yesterday, where this btcman situation first resurfaced.
Combining the translations there with these photos of Avalon chips, (which could be as old as Batch 1, right?) I'm going to put this back in the FUD/BS category again. Title: Re: 40 nm ASIC coming, designed by those claiming to be behind the scene of Avalon Post by: sasadjak on July 09, 2013, 06:58:47 PM I do some research

Since each case can hold up to 6 boxes, 6 times 24 cases is 144 boxes so some of those cases are not full cases. So if each box can hold up to 2600 chips that means there are 351,000 chips on that skid.

This story keeps running hot and cold, and then hot again. Very interesting...

Whoever said september was just pulling numbers out of thin air. The first chip batches were sold at the end of April. Avalon specified a lead time of 9-10 weeks, which works out to the end of last month. Also- if you look at Avalon's BTC address for chip orders, there's approx. 75,000 BTC there. This works out to around 97 orders of 10,000 chips, or just short of a million chips. So these pictures may very well be almost ALL of the orders of avalon chips so far.

This is the same guy that publicly slated every competitor on his forum, before ranting about Western/European work ethic.

Maybe the truth is... The man is the designer & supplier of avalon. The price negotiation between avalon $ him was crashed.So he delayed all chips of avalon's orders.And he posted this info to give a heavy pressure to avalon. Meanwhile he is looking for new customers or partners or he wants to run the business by himself. It's just my supposition.

Title: Re: 40 nm ASIC coming, designed by those claiming to be behind the scene of Avalon Post by: mxz280 on July 10, 2013, 01:36:16 AM 40nm chips will eventually be a formal, public order channels.
All chips will be for me to give orders TSMC manufacturing orders in Fujitsu package, and then commissioned express delivery. Chip orders is the smallest unit 2600, collected enough 2600 miners need their own group. 2600 limits the reason is very simple, because Fujitsu is a 2600 chip packaging box (260 * 10).

40nm chip is no similar agreement, you can open the supply. Title: Re: 40 nm ASIC coming, designed by those claiming to be behind the scene of Avalon Post by: Loredo on July 10, 2013, 01:55:10 AM Well, I had to come back for this. An interesting end to the day.
At #33: "I set the pumpkin mining machine? Relationship engage in anti, pumpkin set up my chips" At #35: "110nm chip has an agreement first, and only intended for Avalon / squash team."

It's a shame no one posted his rant as he publicly aired his views on each competitor. I'll have to dig that up. It's laughable that he states "BTW: We are not to judge others ASIC team, each team has its own technology roadmap and business models, and nothing more." As judging each team is exactly what he did, calling them out name by name from BFL to KnC and slating them and their culture showing a very xenophobic, insecure character. I wonder why he's now backtracking?? Regret, or doesn't want to burn bridges, either way he is by far and away the least pleasant character I've seen promise anything so far. I wouldn't necessarily blame Bitsyncom over the split. This guy appears very callous and greedy. Any partner/investor should approach with extreme caution as location wise contracts would mean squat, and he's just proven he cannot be relied upon to either act with integrity or trust.

I guess the pictures were taken during unpacking. Those 135 parcels were flown from Shanghai to Hong Kong on 2013-06-25 and received by UNI GLORY INTL LOGISTICS. There are two weeks missing, either for further transportation or redistribution. He received most likely less than 374.400 chips in the last days or possibly hours. The bigger boxes are clearely tagged with "n/24" and thus 24 * 6 * 260 * 10 = 374.400, but on the upper left box is a label with "QTY: 7.834" which is far less than 15.600 per box. One box below: "QTY: 7.815". P/N is maybe "CME3256". Edit: P/N CME3256 confirmed by barcode.
