Sounds good. Did you notice the other developers asking for chip samples in the group buy threads?  |

So, I had some time today.
UPDATE
- avalon communication (FINISHED but not tested yet).
- Hash precalculations for Avalon (FINISHED)
- Building data block for Avalon (clock configuration - FINISHED, nonce configuration FINISHED, data for avalon - IN PROGRESS)
- Communication with cgminer - WAIT FOR IMPLEMENTATION
great news, I'm wondering if you're able to set up everything correctly without having the avalon chip on hand. *dreaming about ordering this avalon shield before the chips arrive, beeing able to stick them on the board then by myself* I dont have any avalon chip in this time for real testing but I will test Avalon communication by Spectrum analyzer. Code for miner is programmed by real AVALON A3256 asic chip datasheet. How is a Spectrum analyzer going to help ? |

I'd guess he meant to write logic analyzer...?

There are two steps needed to test the communication without real avalon chip. 1. analyze outgoing bitstream by logic analyzer 2. simulate communication using two arduino due boards (one as avalon simulator) |

UPDATEHi, so base coding is finished. I am ready to testing and debugging. At the moment I have only one arduino due board so I must buy another one. If anyone would like to donate second arduino due board for testing, my bitcoin address is on the frst page. Thanks. http://i43.tinypic.com/2rwqjq1.png

Hi, I am slightly modify the specifications of this project. Max. hashing power will be 9Gh/s. It will contain three avalon modules - each 10 chips per board. Avalon module will be powered from onboard 108 W DC/DC converter. http://i43.tinypic.com/izryav.pngwere in the world are you ? I do have some sample avalon chips coming in batch 1, I maybe able to spare the odd one Hi, I am from Slovakia, central Europe. I would be happy with avalon sample . I'll send you PM. Thank you |

Wow, great job.
Do you need any help with this project?
It looks like you are moving ahead very quickly.

Thank you very much I got some questions about bugs on the power board, previous figure of power shield is not final pcb but only some circuit layout. Complete board is visibled on the last picture. (There is still some 'small errors' about the crystal oscillator). http://i39.tinypic.com/dgjqdj.pngPS for interrested people On the picture with serial console are two mistakes that were fixed but there is old picture. |
