  • Hi Gokul,

    TDA4VM Data sheet: https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/dra829v.pdf?ts=1602603500127&ref_url=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.ti.com%252Fproduct%252FDRA829V

    Table: Table5-1. Speed Grade Maximum Frequency
    Page: 153

    Maximum A72 frequency supported 2 GHz.

    Boot to Linux prompt & just to k3config --cpuinfo

    You can see that CPU is already at 2GHz.


    root@j7-evm:~# k3conf --cpuinfo

  • Hi Gokul,

    Please resolve this thread if your CPU frequency question is answered. Please raise a new thread
    of GPU so that it can be assigned to the right owner.

    Thanks
