Hi punin,
Is it possible to get a detailed Layout or drawing for mounting hole alignment and card placement reasons? Need to know how much i have to change in my case design.

Whats the dimensions of the hashing board and the master board? Does the master board connect to the RasPi using usb or gpio? Does the pi run cgminer or some custom miner software?
Master board is 80x368 mm. Hashing board is 110x139 mm. It's connected using SPI (on the GPIO connector). I don't know about the software. Bitfury used to say he doesn't like cgminer for this purposes. He prefers to write custom software. Hmm, that could be a problem for some of us. What about support? Relying on a custom piece of software that (many of us) will have no clue how to fix when it goes wrong is not a good thing. At least with cgminer or bfgminer there is some limited community support. Also if ckolivas and the cgminer team get their own starter kit they would be able to develop and optimize the software for the hardware. Would it not be better to focus purely on hardware and let someone (like ckolivas and other miner developers) else work on the software (essentially for a free dev board)? Hey allinvain, Did you get any additional feedback on how the software will work or be updated? (i.e. if we want to change mining pool later on or set up multiple pools for redundancy, etc, etc). I haven't been able to find any good answers on this. I do know ckolivas has done a great job supporting multiple hardware with cgminer, which seems to be robust/mature enough to support many options so your comment makes a lot of sense to me. Not sure about bfgminer though. It'd be great if anyone could please clarify. Thanks

We are currently working on the pricing model for the chips and only serve bulk customers for now (2 reels minimum). We plan to continue selling sample chips, but for now they're hidden from the shop.

Update:First H-boards are off the production line! I'm very happy and excited about this! It's looking like we'll be able to ship everything in time! ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi43.tinypic.com%2F24d24gh.jpg&t=665&c=949Dhp58RSA0oA)

wow nice, looks great punin.
So you would be the first ASIC manufacturer(with decent pricing not like asicminer) which would keep their lead time promises.

H-board (the height and depth): 110 width x 134mm Length (again assuming a little bit of overhang from the listed hole dimensions) (highest component is 6mm)

H-board (the height and depth): 110 width x 134mm Length (again assuming a little bit of overhang from the listed hole dimensions) (highest component is 6mm) so the height was changed in this revision from 137 to 134mm is that right? Does the mounting hole alignment stays the same from the top side?

(and what's different?) btw can you take a close-up shot of one of the chips - just so we have a nice picture for reference ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)
