Cards marked available will be available for the foreseeable future. Use one of these cards for new
projects.
Certain cards are marked available with restriction
to certain Revisions (e.g. Rev J and K only).
If an older not mentionend Revision is used migration to latest
revision of that card type is recommended. Cards marked available on request are not available on public order form but may be provided on customer request. Please ask for an offer.
Cards marked remaining
stock are available for a short time, as long as stock
lasts. Do not use these cards for new projects. For existing projects
using this card, fill up your stock for near time needs and migrate
your project to an available card type as specified by Recommended Migration Target.
Cards
marked not available cannot be delievered anymore. For
existing projects using this card migrate your project to an available
card type as specified
by Recommended
Migration Target.
Migration requires the application source code and current
development software.
As an exception to this rule
application source code is not required for MultiApplication BasicCards
when migrating to another MultiApplication BasicCard. In any case it is
strongly recommended to test compatibility of a new card type with
existing hardware and software components using that card. In
general no
changes to card software besides changing the card target type and
recompiling the software is required. Contact development support (see
BasicCard manual for email address) if help is required.
