the temperature of imx6d

[haitaochen]

hello

     If we want to reduce the temperature of imx6d .  what should we do？ Now we reduce the Clock frequency of GPU . That we got the desired temperature. But its performance is so bad. Is there have any good way to lower the temperature without sacrificing performance(except app note AN4509 (i.MX 6Dual/6Quad Power Consumption Measurement) and  app note AN4579 (i.MX 6 Series Thermal Management Guidelines))?    

     We want to know how to set the register to reduce the temperature of imx6d.

Hi haitao

you are right performance may be bad with lowered frequencies, unfortunately

this is unavoidable. In general processor current may be quite big, please look

at sect.4.1.5 Maximum Supply Currents i.MX6DQ Datasheet
http://www.nxp.com/docs/en/data-sheet/IMX6DQCEC.pdf

For decreasing power consumption and current linux uses cpufreq driver described

in Chapter 23 CPU Frequency Scaling (CPUFREQ) Driver attached Linux Manual.

Best regards
igor
