I agree, this is confusing. I can report it.

[quote user="wozix"]Is there any table or document that shows what changed between the rev 1 and rev 2? I have only ready the 4 anomalies fixed that were present in the errata. But I think there should be other improvements not documented there.[/quote]

In addition to the 4 anomalies fixed, there were yield and manufacturing throughput optimization.

Hi Kenneth,

Thanks for your reply. You are right, I messed that up. I do have Rev 1. I still have one question though.

Why doesn't the SDK compatibility matrix show that the Rev1 is compatible with SDK 16 and S140v7.x.x? That is what really threw me off.

Is there any table or document that shows what changed between the rev 1 and rev 2? I have only ready the 4 anomalies fixed that were present in the errata. But I think there should be other improvements not documented there.

Thanks.

You are actually using rev 1 based on the build code C0 (if it was CA it would be engineering C):

The S140v7.x.x will work on rev 1.
