Limited Revision
A limited revision is anything that is not a full revision but allows for content to be updated (e.g., amendment or corrigendum).
ANSI does not define; IEEE-SA defines as:
 Amendment: A document that adds to, removes from, or alters material in a portion of an existing IEEE standard and may make editorial or technical corrections to that standard.
Corrigendum: A document that only corrects editorial errors, technical errors, or ambiguities in an existing IEEE standard. A corrigendum does not introduce new material.
Submitted to ANSI as a Supplement to a current ANS
A limited revision would go through the same approval process as for any C63 revision: e.g., C63 Main Committee ballot, recirculation ballot(s), submission of BSR-8 and BSR-9 forms, etc.
NOTE — An amendment to a standard may be prepared to maintain the state-of-the-art within the standard due to advancing technology or techniques. An amendment facilitates the timely change of an existing IEEE standard prior to its complete revision.
NOTE — A typical corrigendum may contain: — Corrections to equations, tables, or figures, or their associated numbering or citations in the text — Corrections to technically incorrect sentences or paragraphs
