+*
+* This file contains the interface for the XVersion component. This
+* component represents a version ID.  It is encapsulated within a component
+* so that it's type and implementation can change without affecting users of
+* it.
+*
+* The version is formatted as X.YYZ where X = 0 - 9, Y = 00 - 99, Z = a - z
+* X is the major revision, YY is the minor revision, and Z is the
+* compatability revision.
+*
+* Packed versions are also utilized for the configuration ROM such that
+* memory is minimized. A packed version consumes only 16 bits and is
+* formatted as follows.
+*
+* <pre>
+* Revision                  Range       Bit Positions
+*
+* Major Revision            0 - 9       Bits 15 - 12
+* Minor Revision            0 - 99      Bits 11 - 5
+* Compatability Revision    a - z       Bits 4 - 0
+* </pre>
