Power and area optimised Bitcoin miner engine

The eSi-BTC core is a Bitcoin miner engine that perform double SHA256 Hash.

Overview

The eSi-BTC core is a Bitcoin miner engine that perform double SHA256 Hash. It is design to deliver best in class silicon area and power for the next generation of low energy Bitcoin minder ASICs. .

To improve power performance instead of search for a valid Nonce the eSi-BTC search for a Nonce candidate. This simplification demands that the Nonce candidate must be checked outside the engine. This allows a reduction in the number of rounds performed in the second Hash.

Key features

  • Fully pipelined architecture.
  • Optimized to minimise the area and power.
  • Support to use multiples cores in parallel
  • Synthesisable System Verilog
  • In 6nm FinFet technology the energy efficiency is 40 J/THash at 0.585v core voltage.
