Aryan can you just clarify a couple more points please
Engineering Rev A was on the PCA10036, the preview development kit
Engineering Rev B was on the PCA10040 0.9.? which was given out at the Global Tech Tour
So there's Engineering Rev C and there's Rev 1 which is the first production release (yay!). What versions of the dev kits have either of those two on them? Are there any differences between Engineering Rev C and Production Rev 1 at all or is it just a renaming?
I'd like to be sure the next PCA10040 I buy has Production Rev1 silicon on it, or Engineering C if that is really the exact same thing. Hence I need to ask Mouser, or whoever, very, very carefully, which revision of the PCA10040 they have in stock.
What versions of the dev kits have either of those two on them
I am not sure, I will have to check and comeback to you, if i forget please be gentle and remind me.
Only two minor improvement as far as i can tell in Rev1
fixed. 53. “Using SCB.AIRCR.VECTRESET may get the chip into an undefined state”
the calibration and tuning values in FICR might have been optimized for rev1, but the silicon is identical in other aspects other than these two points.
Hi RK,
There is IC Revision overview where you see the packet variant and build code. Ask your supplier if the DK they have are with ICs with Rev1 build codes on the chip. But I do no think anyone has them yet.
PCA10040 v0.9 has the rev B
PCA10040 v1.0.1 is RevC
donno which one is Rev1
Thanks - will. I see Mouser is out anyway right now so hopefully they are getting new kits in with new revs. I'll ask a couple of other guys I use too, even though my GTT kit is working just fine.
We ordered 4 DKs (digikey) late on Tuesday and they came in today marked as PCA10040 v1.1.0 which according to ([https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/71155/buy-pca10040-with-latest-ic-revision]) is the latest chip revision . Each Dev Kit shipped with a strip of 5 additional N52832-QFAAB0-1606AA SoCs.
