Intel is dedicated to becoming a key player in the blockchain space. The multinational semiconductor manufacturer has unveiled its second-generation chip for proof-of-work crypto mining.
Intel launches Blockscale Technology that will enable energy-efficient Bitcoin mining
In a press release today, Intel revealed details of its new application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), named Intel Blockscale ASIC. The chip is billed to be revolutionary in providing an energy-efficient solution to blockchain hashing.
The specifications of the second-generation mining chip include a dedicated secure hash algorithm-256 (SHA-256) ASIC processor that will reach up to 580 GH/s hash rate operating and up to 26 J/TH power efficiency. This would make it more energy-efficient than Bitmain’s Antminer S19J which has an energy efficiency of 34.5 joules per terahash.
Similarly, the ASIC will also feature on-chip temperature-and-voltage-sensing capabilities, and will support up to 256 integrated circuits
