      This micronote documents the  ECO	 and  etch  revision  history  of  the
      KDF11-A  (LSI  11/23)  module.  A quick verify has been included so that
      the status of a module may be determined by a visual check.


      For the M8186, the revision  identifier  is  a  two  field  alphanumeric
      designation stamped on the reverse side of the module handle.  The first
      field indicates the etch	revision.   The	 second	 field	indicates  the
      modifications to this etch.


      Hardware revision notation :

				    A 0
	      Identifies etch level	Identifies modifications


      The M8186 began as hardware revision "A0", as  shown  above.   That  is,
      etch  revision  "A"  with	 no  modifications  or	rework.	 As ECO's were
      released calling for rework, the hardware revision level was updated  to
      "A1",  then  "A2",  etc.	Periodically new etch revisions were released,
      incorporating previous modifications.   When  these  occurred  the  etch
      revision	field  was updated from "A" to "C", and later from "C" to "D".
      For the M8186, no etch revision "B" was released.

      ship  to	the field.  These ECO's are coded "M8186-ML0XX", where "XX" is
      the ECO number shown below :
