Will a productized version of the passified USB-A Card be available?

I got an AMD Laptop 13 without any USB-A cards and was wondering if there have been any updates on the following comment from @npr?

We are investigating some hardware solutions for it, including a productizable version of essentially what this community member did: Passifying the USB-A Card

I can just use an adapther for the time being, because, I’d mucher rather get a card already fixed rather than try it myself or restrict the slots I must use.

Should not be needed

If any issues have popped back up, looks like they should be fixable in firmware.

~edit~
Oh, I failed to read your link to this post

I guess they might need a hardware fix. If it is needed, I’m sure they’ll create one, they are just entirely focused on the getting the fw16 launched asap.

This apears to be for the Intel versions if i’m not mistaken.
So I believe the AMD Laptops are still effected.

13th gen Intel boards only without hardware mods/revisions like the DP and HDMI.

11th gen boards have a constant drain of ~0.35W per USB A card.

12th gen ameliorated the idle consumption however drain during sleep was the same as 11th gen, ~0.35W per card.

AMD 13/16 boards only have this USB A issue on the rear ports according to the knowledge base:
