About Canaan Miner
Canaan Miner is a cryptocurrency mining hardware brand developed and operated by Canaan Creative Co., Ltd. - 北京嘉楠捷思信息技术有限公司
The Dedicated Home for Canaan Miner Hardware
Canaan Miner is the dedicated product platform and official hardware destination operated by Canaan Creative Co., Ltd. (北京嘉楠捷思信息技术有限公司), the core operating subsidiary of Canaan Inc. (Nasdaq: CAN). Our mission is to deliver direct, factory-backed access to Avalon ASIC computing systems for institutional data centers, commercial hosting facilities, and individual mining operations worldwide.
While Canaan Inc. stands as a world-leading computing solution provider and fabless IC designer, Canaan Miner focuses exclusively on delivering high-efficiency Bitcoin mining systems, immersion-cooling infrastructure, genuine replacement parts, and direct firmware support. We are not an intermediary or third-party reseller; we are the direct engineering and operating arm responsible for the research, hardware development, and global deployment of Avalon systems.
Pioneering the ASIC Era Since 2013
In early 2013, computer scientist N.G. Zhang (张楠赓) and co-founder Li Jiaxuan (李佳轩) made computing history by designing and delivering the Avalon1—the world’s very first commercial ASIC Bitcoin mining machine. Prior to Avalon, network computing relied on energy-intensive GPUs and FPGAs. The introduction of Avalon demonstrated that custom-designed application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) could deliver orders-of-magnitude higher computational density while radically lowering electricity consumption, fundamentally shaping the blockchain infrastructure industry.
On April 1, 2013, Beijing Canaan Creative (北京嘉楠捷思信息技术有限公司) was formally incorporated in Beijing’s Haidian high-tech corridor (Unified Social Credit Code: 911101080648807056). Within the Canaan Group, our entity has served as the core research and development backbone for integrated circuit (IC/ASIC) architecture, system-level hardware design, supply chain procurement, and production management of the entire Canaan Miner fleet.
Officially recognized as a National High and New Technology Enterprise (HNTE) with preferential standing renewed through 2028, and holding registered IC logic cell intellectual property rights with the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA), our engineering legacy powers millions of terahashes operating reliably across global energy infrastructures.
Precision Engineering & Build Protocol
Proprietary Silicon & SMT Assembly
Custom ASIC chips engineered by our internal R&D team are placed onto multi-layer high-density PCB hashboards using automated high-speed surface-mount technology (SMT), followed by automated optical inspection (AOI) to verify solder joint integrity.
Thermal Bonding & Dual-Chamber Integration
Hashboards are fitted with aerospace-grade CNC aluminum heatsinks and phase-change thermal compound. Hydro-cooled models undergo helium-pressure leak testing to guarantee zero-defect seals in liquid and immersion cooling loops.
24 to 48-Hour Full-Load Burn-In Qualification
Every assembled miner operates for 24 to 48 consecutive hours under full compute load in climate-controlled burn-in chambers. Technicians monitor hashrate stability, board temperatures, and power regulation before clearing the machine for release.
Serial Tracking & Official Factory Warranty
Each unit receives a laser-etched serial number permanently indexed to its factory test logs, fitted with tamper-evident security seals, and backed by Canaan’s official manufacturer warranty and firmware support.
Why Institutional Miners Trust Avalon
Three core principles guide how we design silicon, assemble mining hardware, and support commercial operators:
Direct Factory Relationship
Deal directly with the manufacturer. We eliminate gray-market markups, broker uncertainties, and unauthorized third parties, providing authentic hardware, verified batch origins, and direct warranty accountability.
Bench-Tested Specifications
Every hashrate figure and efficiency rating in our published technical sheets reflects real-world bench measurements under standard data-center ambient temperatures—not theoretical or unachievable lab conditions.
Energy Efficiency & Silicon Longevity
Minimizing Joules per Terahash (J/TH) is our engineering obsession. We pair custom ASIC silicon with intelligent thermal throttling firmware and heavy-duty power supplies to maximize operational uptime across multi-year cycles.
Industrial Mining Systems Engineered for Scale
From high-density air-cooled racks to closed-loop hydro deployments:
