Hardware Component	Firmware Release	MFG Part #	Download Location	Notes	Additional Note
CMIOU (FPGA)	x.3.8.3	7312807, 7315495	26970558	When replacing a CMIOU, the CMIOU FPGA firmware should be updated. Reference : SPARC M7 Series Servers : CMIOU FPGA firmware update (Doc ID 2085049.1)	When shipped to customers, all of the FPGA should be running the latest firmware. Each of the documents referenced contains the procedure to update all of the FPGA at once. See section#4 of any of the 3 documents. This single .pkg file contains the FPGA images for all of the components (CMIOU, SWU and SP/SPP).
SWU (FPGA)	y.2.0.5	7300238	26970558	When replacing a SWU, the SWU FPGA firmware should be updated. Reference : SPARC M7 Series Servers : SWU FPGA firmware update (Doc ID 2085539.1)
SP / SPP (FPGA)	15.1.3.4	7098746, 7098750	26970558	When replacing a SP/SPP, the SP/SPP FPGA firmware should be updated. Reference : SPARC M7 Series Servers : SP or SPP FPGA firmware update (Doc ID 2085572.1)
