Revision 1.4.2

There is no information on this.

Revision 1.4.1

  • bc_v01040001_25jan2008.sof

Features:

  • Added card_type and scratch commands
  • Integrated fw_rev and slot_id as part of all_cards
  • Added provisions for safe state machines to fix the reset problem.
  • Added lvds_tx = 0 so clock-card can check whether the card is plugged in using this spare lvds line.

Bugs: None so far
