Avalon 1146

Canaan continued production of ASIC miners in summer 2020 without breaking the traditional numerical marking adopted in the 10-series. The new equipment received the number 1146 and the 16nm chip used on the previous model.

As a result, the specifications were not too much better than the "classmates" and significantly lagged behind the rival Antminer, which surpassed Canaan in 2020, in terms of chip processor size and hash rate. Avalon 1146 offered owners, mining cryptocurrency with the following parameters:

• Working Algorithm: SHA-256
• Cooling system: air 4 fans
• Chip process size: 16nm
• Hash rate: 56 TH/s
• Power consumption: 3192W
• Energy efficiency: 57 J/TH
• Operating temperature range: 5-35C
• Noise level: 75 dB
• Weight: 12.8 kg
• Dimensions: 331 x 195 x 292

After several years of operation, the Avalon 1146's shortcomings have turned into definite advantages. The chips, air-cooling solutions and technical layout of the equipment ensured the longevity of the miners. It was possible to increase the performance through the use of custom and stock firmware.

The actual software with the updates for ASIC-mainers can be found in the special section of our website. The usage of the custom and stock firmware will help to minimize the return and the cost of mining investment.

 Avalon 1146 PRO

The Avalon 1146 ASIC miner with the prefix PRO was released by Canaan simultaneously with the 1146 model. The device was positioned as a professional model that had a more reinforced power supply and air cooling solutions. The Avalon 1146 PRO ran on 16nm chips and delivered the following specifications:

• Working Algorithm: SHA-256
• Cooling system: Air cooled 4x fans
• Chip process size: 16nm
• Hash rate: 63 TH/s
• Power Consumption: 3276W
• Energy efficiency: 52 J/TH
• Operating temperature range: 5-35C
• Noise level: 75 dB
• Weight: 12.8 kg
• Dimensions: 331 x 195 x 292

As you can see from the above figures, when the Avalon 1146 PRO was lagging behind the competition, but today this drawback is compensated by the drop in price of the equipment. As a result, the owner gets a reliable cryptocurrency mining device with a large margin of safety.

The chip, air cooling and element base, allow you to increase the performance of ASIC-miner with the help of custom and stock firmware. They are available in a special section of our website.
