3) Countermeasure and revising schedule
For this bug, Fujitsu consider that provisional countermeasure is possible by
following method.
3-1) Provisional countermeasure plan with combination between uDMA and UART
(Synchronization/Asynchronization) transmission (Software countermeasure)
At using EI2OS of secret function for MB90480/485series, the behavior of bug
is avoided. EI2OS has same function as uDMA, and same data transmission as
uDMA is possible. However note that execution time of transmission between
EI2OS and uDMA is different.

3-2) Permanent countermeasure with combination between uDMA and UART
(Synchronization/Asynchronization) transmission (Hardware revision)
For countermeasure of bug with combination between uDMA and UART
(Synchronization/Asynchronization) transmission, Fujitsu revise MB90485series
as high priority. Revision schedule of MB90485series is as following. Also
countermeasure device of this bug is added “B” suffix to end of part number.
