ZTEX is a manufacturer of FPGA boards. ZTEX offers the USB-FPGA Module 1.15x which is optimized for cryptographic computations like Bitcoin Mining.
This FPGA Board has on-board voltage regulators and an USB interface which is used for communication and device programming. Low cost FPGA mining rigs can be build using standard components (USB hubs, USB cables, ATX PSU's).
With the current version of the BTCMiner this FPGA Board achieves typically 190 MH/s (usually 192 MHz at an error rate of less than 1%). Power dissipation is 8.5 W.
Current prices including volume prices are stated at the Bitcoin Forum.
