DM8168-evm hardware layout

Hi,

       I am considering to layout a DM8168-evm board for my research experiments. And I found the spectrumdigital website:

 http://support.spectrumdigital.com/boards/evm816x/revg/ 

and

http://support.spectrumdigital.com/boards/evm816xiodc/revc/ 

Now, my question is :

  (1) If I download all the files from these two websites, is it enough for me to layout the reqiured boards for DM8168-evm (main board and daughter board) ?

  (2) What version of EZSDK will run OK on this hardware RevisionG? Can the latest EZSDK 5_05_01_04 run on the HW RevisionG?

  (3) Are there any newer HW design files than RevisionG? If yes, where is it?

    Thanks

    Yes, there are Layout Info documents available (Board Data base in Allegro Format)

    Yes, EZSDK 5.05.01.04 can run on the rev.G 816X/389X EVM, but it is not the latest. The latest EZSDK is 5.05.02.00 and it also run OK on the rev.G 816X/389X EVM.

    I am not aware for newer revision than G. You can double check this with Spectrum Digital support: support@spectrumdigital.com
