About DM368 DDR PLL affect the boot process from nand

Genius 3400 points

Hi,

     It's still boot  from nand problem that we modify our Camera board(using DM368). The old board, we set DDR PLL to 343, and can boot from nand successfully. But the new board cannot.

     we set different DDR PLL in uboot, the phenomena is different: Set the DDR PLL to 300M or below, it can boot successfully; Set the DDR PLL 320M or 343M, it can not boot, and the error message is different. just as see the following.

     Set DDR PLL to 240/300M in uboot, it can boot successfully:

crc error

and If we set DDR PLL to 343M in uboot, the error message is different:

The old camera board can boot from nand successfully when set DDR PLL to 343M. Our hardware engineer is very sure that have no different between the old and new board in nand and DDR drawing.

So, we are meeting a urgent problem.  Anyboady can give me some advice about this problem?

Thanks a lot.
