I think you may also need to beware of the MC firmware revision - I
seem to remember reading in the changelog notes for it that NXP
dropped support in the MC firmware for the older silicon, though I
may be misremembering. It's been a while since I really looked at
the LX2160A from the point of view of maintaining or developing
anything for it.
