UTCA-5503 User Manual 38
Below is a list of UTCA-5503’s current supported and unsupported features.
MCMC firmware version: 01.00, FPGA firmware version: 01.00
Known Limitations:
Current MCMC Firmware does not support redundant MCH configurations. Insertion
of two MCHs may have unpredictable results and is explicitly prohibited.
