PCN 0706: Silicon Sculptor Software Improvement for the SX Family

April 6, 2007
PCN number: 0706
PCN change level: Minor
Subject: Silicon Sculptor Software Improvement for the SX Family
Dear Purchasing,
A minor change was made to Silicon Sculptor Software v4.62.2 (Silicon Sculptor II and 3 only) to
improve programming yield on the SX product family, primarily the A54SX16 device. The
programmer control signal output voltages were raised to be in line with VCC on all SX devices.
There is no impact to device form, fit, function, performance, or reliability.
