Just to clarify, I see that S32K Design Studio for ARM V2.0 supports S32K144 revision V2.0 but the SDK S32K14x EAR release v.0.8.4 supports S32K144 revision V2.1. Does this mean the revision V2.0 is support in the new IDE but not the new SDK?

Is it possible to use an older SDK with S32K Design Studio for ARM V2.0 if we're using S32K144 revision V2.0? Or must we remain on the S32DS version that was mentioned in the specific SDK ReleaseNotes?

Thanks,

Jeremiah

Similar to the above, I'm confused that my v1.3 was running SDK version 1.0.0, however now that v2.0 of the IDE is out, it's running SDK version 0.8.4 - and naturally they're not backward-compatible.

Could we get a diagram of which SDK versions correspond with which IDE and which hardware? This is very confusing for those of us who don't work at NXP
