Has anyone seen an Avalon miner in action? I was thinking about going in on one of the ASIC chip group buys and making my own!
Are you an electrical engineer, or do you know some? It's not going to be easy to make your own miner. I know there's someone doing the PCB part of it with chips people buy, but I don't know too much.
Yup, I am one actually! I'm planning on making one simple board to start that just holds a single asic and support circuitry (like power supply and high-frequency clock) with the data pins broken out to 0.1" headers so it can be plugged into a breadboard. People can then use this to prototype larger designs.
