If I understand the question, yes there is a relationship.  I would say 
your latter statement is correct.  As far as I know, the ODBC drivers 
are backwards compatible but not forward compatible, although most 
things in ODBC 11 would work with 12, just not new features not 
comprehended in the older ODBC driver.

      Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
      <br>
      <br>
      is there any relation between the postgresql-Version and
      psqlODBC-Version? So is it possible to run a postgresql-server in
      version 12 and get a working  connection with psqlODBC-driver
      version 11.01.0000? Or have i to upgrade the driver to version 12x
      when i run a postgresql server in version 12.x?
