This thread relates to the project that i am starting. The aim is to build a framed timeline that has every bitcoin asic chip ever fabricated and publicly released.

I am currently in the process of stage one. This is collecting as many different chips as i possibly can. I will be organising every chip into a frame with information on each chip. The picture at the top of the thread will be the kept up to date with the current progress of the project. I will be documenting the whole process of the building of the frames.

I am looking for recommendations/ideas. Has anyone done something like this before?

If you have any chips listed below please contact me if you are willing to sell them.

I am hoping to build two frames and auction one off for charity if i am able to collect enough chips and the interest is high enough.

Chips i have, are crossed out. Ones i need are not.

Avalon A3256 130nm
Avalon A3255 55nm
Avalon A3233 40nm
Avalon A3222 28nm
Bitfury V1
Bitfury V2
Hashfast Golden Nonce I ONLY HAVE ONE OF THESE IF YOU HAVE ONE AVAILABLE PLEASE CONTACT ME
Cointerra GoldStrike 28nm
Butterfly Labs 65nm
Butterfly Labs 28nm
BlackArrow Minion 28nm
Innosilicon A1 28nm
Bitmain BM1380 55nm
Bitmain BM1382 28nm
KnCMiner 28nm
KnCMiner 20nm
ASICMINER BE100 130nm
ASICMINER BE200 40nm
Spondoolies-Tech Hammer 40nm
Spondoolies-Tech RockerBox 28nm

SCRYPT:

Innosilicon A2 28nm
Gridseed
Dragon

So far i would like to thank:
MrTeal
Spondoolies
Thresher

For helping me with the sourcing of chips.

Actually doing sort of the same idea but using a shadow box with a lot of the stuff still on boards and some chips.

Personally I have
KNC x2 (One with the IHS removed)
KNC Controller Board (Wanted for the little quote on it)
Avalon2 (Boards and chips)
AntMiner S1 chips/boards
BitFury v1 Chips
Blackarrow Minion Chip
A1

Still need many more though Sad

You've got me thinking maybe just removing all the chips so I won't need as much room.

I've been following your post in the forsale section which got me going as well.  Can't wait to see the end result.

Good luck with finding them. It is tough finding some bare chips such as bitmain/knc etc as they where not really ever sold as just chips. I think the aspect of using the boards is a good one but i feel it would take a way from the chips themselves and would also take up a lot more room. I am hoping to do the same thing with USB miners next if i can get this completed. Good luck with your project i would love to see how it is going feel free to post some pictures in this thread if you want.

Do you mean you are making a picturing frame for each individual chip, then just displaying it with the info?  Or is it a re-purposing of the chips to function as a frame??

Putting each individual chips together into one big frame then displaying the chip information in beside the chip.

Be aware that Bitmain is now about to ship its Gen 2 chips.

I don't have any chips to donate but I really like your idea. Maybe you can create Bitcoin logo from all chips and then add description above -beside - below each chip.

Good luck  Smiley

Oh nice, seems like a cool project. Good luck in your chip hunt!

I like this project, you can harvest chips from older miners by popping them into a reflow oven, since I think all of the are smt.

I've got an old K16 Klondike that has the 1.2 volt core chip burnt up,you want it ?? Maybe you can pull the Gen 1 Avalon ASIC's off it.

I can send just the PCB or the heatsink & fan with it  Wink

Awesome idea! I'm looking forward to see how this turns out.

Just to get pendantic on chip / manufacturer names, e.g.:
ASICMINER BE100 130nm
Bitmain BM1380 55nm
Bitmain BM1382 28nm
Butterfly Labs 65nm
Butterfly Labs 28nm     Wink
KnCMiner 28nm
KnCMiner 20nm
Innosilicon A1 28nm
Spondoolies-Tech Hammer 40nm

... you get the drift, official spellings. I think it is helpful to add the node size since some chips don't seem to have a part number (e.g. BFL, KnC).

Run a Bitcoin node, support the network.

For ASICMiner, there are only currently two chips out:

Gen 1: 130nm @ 336MH/s (No longer in production)
Gen 3: 40nm @ 10-12 GH/s (Currently produced)

Gen 2 was never produced.
