I've posted in the developers forum as well but I'm and electrical engineer with lots of embedded design experience. I'd like to get involved with the open source asic miner - I already have a batch of 30 coming via zefir 
Whitelisting will let me contribute on the actual design forum.
Thanks!

I'm an electrical engineer and I'm getting involved with the open source asic miner hardware using the Avalon chips. I've already got a batch of chips ordered via zefir's group-buy.
Once specs are out I'll be designing and releasing a small prototype PCB with a single chip, and contributing on the design of the bigger open source miner.
Thanks!

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.
what are newbies planning on doing with the chips? how many are planning on requesting they be assembled into the 10 chip rigs in germany?
Ha! I'm here for the chips too
I'm and engineer so I was planning on designing my own simple mining rig and maybe selling small dev boards with a single chip for people to play with.
