Release Note
C0FE0036_xxxx.sff

Problem/Cause:
If nodeAlarm is configured to look at the axis fault, and the axis fault is configured to look at driveFault, a race condition would occur making both nodeAlarm and driveFault unclearable. This issue existed in all FPGA versions prior to x0344.

Fix/Solution:
Modified FPGA code for versions x0344 and later. If a driveFault is occurring, nodeAlarm is not written to the drive. This allows for both nodeAlarm and driveFault to be cleared. No software changes are required.

Description:
Add support for multiple packets to the rxMiiBuffer. This improves tolerance to network jitter. Prior to version x0341, the rxMiiBuffer could absorb up to 32 clocks (1.28 µS) of delay for a single packet, but only 8 clocks for multiple packets with minimum spacing. This change is required to meet theoretical worst-case network jitter in large networks (32 nodes). The improvement may also help at network startup, since the node's PLL phase error is larger than normal (as the PLL pulls into nominal lock). No software changes are required.

Description:
Release new FPGA type C0FE0036_0341.sff.

Description:
Add BranchRev register. This extends the existing 16 bits of FPGA version number with 8 bits of branch and 8 bits of revision ID.
