Would it be a stable/safe choice for a production board ?</P><P>Thanks</P><P>angelo</P> Fri, 08 Sep 2023 15:02:54 GMT _angelo_ 2023-09-08T15:02:54Z https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/imx7s-clock-speed/m-p/1719643#M212276 <P>Hi,</P><P>i see imx7s is validated to work at 800Mhz max, while, imx7d can reach 1GHz</P><P>Could imx7s be used at 1GHz, setting the speed in fdt, without any risk of damage ?

It's not stable, nor safe and should not be tried neither in development nor production.</P> <P>Regards</P> Fri, 08 Sep 2023 19:30:32 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/imx7s-clock-speed/m-p/1719726#M212287 JosephAtNXP 2023-09-08T19:30:32Z
