Unit Configs

ConfigID

Configuration ID is an identifier that references a master build-up document. It's broken down as the following:

• Unit motherboard
• Engineering phase EV, DV, or PV
• Milestone # of aforementioned hardware phase
• Build-up ID # as designed by the master configID bill-of-materials.

Deviation Config

A type of configuration ID for units that have continued bill-of-material changes after the initial hardware is launched to consumers. These units are considered PV hardware as they are small batches of units with changes to the base bill-of-materials. Deviation configs reference a master build-up document.

• DEV01337

• JADK EV2
• XeEV5 DK
• XeDK

System Level Tester
