2.3.6. Package B32A

Figure 9. Consideration Details

The B32A package is available in Device Group B with Device Specification of A, B, C, D, and E while Device Group A with Device Specification of C and D. Support for transceiver and HPS depends on the Device Specification of the selected device. The considerations taken when migrating between this package depends on which Device Specification you are migrating to.

Refer to the following examples to understand the areas that require consideration when planning for migration within the B32A package.

Examples:
  • Device Group A supports Smart VID voltage regulator while Device Group B supports fixed voltage regulator. You must consider the power regulator requirements when migrating between these devices.
  • If you are migrating from Device Specification C of A5E008B to Device Specification D of A5E013B devices, then you are migrating from non-HPS supported device to HPS supported device.
  • If you are migrating from Device Specification D of A5E008B to Device Specification D of A5E028B devices, then you are migrating from 4 Transceiver channels supported device to 12 channels supported device for this scenario.

The following table summarizes the areas that require consideration when planning migration within the B32A package. Refer to Functional Area for more details on each area.
