7 Appendix C. Hardware/Firmware Compatibility With Designs Before Revision 5

Starting with revision 5 of the PL460-EK board, the multiplexing of the GPIOs connected to the Xplained Pro connector has been modified to enhance connectivity. As a result, this revision is not compatible with earlier firmware versions, and conversely, previous versions of the PL460-EK board are not compatible with the latest firmware releases. However, earlier PL460-EK boards can be modified slightly to work with the new firmware. If earlier versions of PL460-EK revision 5 are going to be used with previous firmware versions, it is not necessary to make any changes.
