Bit fields of the Version Register facilitate identification of the exact version of the hardware peripheral incorporated into a system. The core driver uses this Read-Only value to verify that the software is matched to the correct version of the hardware.
Recommended bit assignments of the version register are:
• Bits 7-0: REVISION_NUMBER
• Bits 11-8: PATCH_ID
• Bits 15-12: VERSION_REVISION
• Bits 23-16: VERSION_MINOR
• Bits 31-24: VERSION_MAJOR
