BQ40Z50-R2: Can BQ40Z50-R2 be replaced to BQ40Z50 ?

Part Number: BQ40Z50-R2
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQ40Z50-R1, BQ40Z50

In our product, BQ40Z50-R2 is used for battery management.

But BQ40Z50-R2 and BQ40Z50-R1 are out of stock now and I cannot find the store having stocks, but I found 1 shop having the stock of BQ40Z50.
I'm considering to use BQ40Z50 instead of BQ40Z50-R2.

1. Can BQ40Z50 be updated to SW v.2.11 ? (I've confirmed BQ40Z50-R1 of EVM can be updated. )

2. What is the difference between BQ40Z50-R2 and BQ40Z50 ?
