Description

The fix for this issue requires a new die revision. Use the die revision character in the Date Code (printed on the top side of the device) to determine if the device supports CvP. The CvP update can only be used at Gen1 data rates.

CvP is supported if the fourth alphanumeric character from the left (“Z” in Figure below) is equal to, or later in the alphabet than the letter in the "Revision with Fix" column of the table shown in the "Status" section below.
