Errata for CC3100 "post ES"?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3100

I just received boards with CC3100MODs that are "post engineering samples" (please see the attached picture). Is there an errata describing possible issues when moving from ES to non-ES? I noted that the MAC address for one thing is needs an 8 byte buffer (http://e2e.ti.com/support/wireless_connectivity/f/968/t/371535.aspx) and also the following call fails when talking to an non-ES CC3100 (I use the CC3100 SDK 1.0.0):

SlVersionFull ver;
u8_t config_opt = SL_DEVICE_GENERAL_VERSION, config_len = sizeof(ver);
s32_t status = sl_DevGet(SL_DEVICE_GENERAL_CONFIGURATION, &config_opt, &config_len, (unsigned char *)(&ver));

Johan

Hi Johan,

Please contact your respective sales representative to obtain the latest datasheet under NDA.

Based on the marking on the module, this version doesn't have hardware issues, compared to the ES version. I would recommend upgrading the internal service pack to the latest version for both ES and non-ES versions, to ensure that you have the latest firmware on both module, and rerun your tests.

For the error seen with the 8 byte buffer, the error may be ignored, see this thread (http://e2e.ti.com/support/wireless_connectivity/f/968/p/360573/1279578.aspx#1279578).
