3.1.3 Operating ranges
Table 7 provides the operating ranges of the i.MX 8M Dual / 8M QuadLite / 8M Quad processors. For
details on the chip's power structure, see the “Power Management Unit (PMU)” chapter of the i.MX 8M
Dual / 8M QuadLite / 8M Quad Applications Processor Reference Manual (IMX8MDQLQRM).
2
Per JEDEC JESD51-2 with the single layer board horizontal. Thermal test board meets JEDEC specification for the specified
package.
3
Per JEDEC JESD51-6 with the board horizontal.
4
Thermal resistance between the die and the printed circuit board per JEDEC JESD51-8. Board temperature is measured on
the top surface of the board near the package.
5
Thermal resistance between the die and the case top surface as measured by the cold plate method (MIL SPEC-883 Method
1012.1).
