i.MX7D boot problems on some boards

Hi,

I'm encountering strange random problem on some of our boards based on i.MX7D during production.

They just can't flash the eMMc using UUU tools, because U-boot boots partially, or does not boot at all in RAM. When the board boots partially, it starts to boot and than just randomly stop. I have found common thing in boot logs, when board is able to boot partially, that running CPU frequency is degraded to 396MHz, instead of normal 792MHz.

U-Boot 2022.04-lf_v2022.04+g16e8414193 (Oct 08 2022 - 13:33:43 +0000)

CPU:   i.MX7D rev1.3 1000 MHz (running at 396 MHz)
CPU:   Extended Commercial temperature grade (-20C to 105C) at 31C
Reset cause: POR
DRAM:  512 MiB

I have tried to disable CONFIG_IMX_THERMAL, but no change and CPU temperature is around 33°C, so it should be OK.

When I load DDR test using JTAG, it is running OK without any error.

Any ideas, what could be causing the problems?

Probably some race situation/parameters, or HW problem, but I'm quite out of options, what to try.

Thanks in advance,

Michal Spanik
