Notification 2018110004
Notification subject Stepping Change Notice for Avalue Bay Trail Products
Date of Publication 2018-11-30
Reason for the change

Product Change Notice (PCN) pertaining to Avalue Products which designed based on Intel® Bay Trail Platform. Avalue is pleased to provide you products with the D-1 stepping processors that are going to replace the current C-0 stepping processor for better reliability. In addition, the new processor microcode patch is going to be implemented for better security.
 
Customer’s impact toward the change and recommended action
All functions stay the same with previous one, but the OEM BIOS and OS Image in use need to be rebuilt accordingly, since the VBIOS/GOP, graphics drivers are required to be updated to fit the D-1 stepping.
 
Avalue still maintains that products you purchased, but strongly suggest customers get into contact with sales/ technical window to qualify new version with standard/OEM BIOS and OS Image at the same time. After all, the C-0 stepping will be end-of-life in the end.
 
If customers do not want to migrate to new version, Avalue will continue taking customer order at MOQ 500pcs (If Intel® continues supply chain) until that components cannot be purchased on the market, or under mutually acceptable conditions, the customers will have the opportunity to pre-purchase that component and ask Avalue to hold the item(s) in stock until production is required (MOQ of production 500pcs).
