Almost there:

Looks good, does it use the same communication as gridseeds? Pretty much want to know if new software would be needed or a pi with minera would be ready to go with this?

the current software can be found here:
https://github.com/sfards/ASIC-SF3301/tree/master/miner_code

But there will probably be implementations in CGminer and/or bfgminer as soon as the hardware is shipping.


Sounds good, what quantity of these do you plan on making if you do even plan on making a batch? I really like the design and well not the price of sfards main product.

This is just a dev board, it's not economically viable as a miner. Even with a chip price way lower than the 100$ for one sample.
I'll have a look at my BOM, but without the chips, I'm probably already over 150$ for one board.
