08:11 | Exaga> | jnettlet: why did the chicken cross the road? |
08:12 | Exaga> | jnettlet: to see his flat mate :> |
08:12 | jnettlet> | ugggh |
08:12 | jnettlet> | but nice |
08:12 | Exaga> | lol |
08:13 | Exaga> | is it ok to pick your brains a little at ths time of sunday morning? |
08:15 | jnettlet> | of course. I have been working for hours already |
08:15 | Exaga> | aww ur always working hard :> |
08:16 | Exaga> | on my hummingboard i2ex - the soc gets a but hot when compiling |
08:16 | Exaga> | bit* |
08:16 | jnettlet> | I live in Denmark. Not much else to do |
08:16 | Exaga> | drink carlsberg? |
08:16 | Exaga | 08:16 * Exaga ducks |
08:17 | jnettlet> | I prefer Tuborg if I am drinking Danish beer. |
08:17 | Exaga | 08:17 * Exaga brews his own mead at home |
08:17 | jnettlet> | Are you using our NXP based kernel, or mainline? |
08:17 | Exaga> | 17-25% proof |
08:17 | Exaga> | NXP |
08:18 | Exaga> | anyway, my question is... will i be doing any harm by running it hot for prolonged periods and i mean hours |
08:18 | Exaga> | will it decrease the lifespan of the device? |
08:19 | Exaga> | theoretically or practically |
08:19 | jnettlet> | not at all. It has built in throttling levels, and a critical shutdown. All of NXPs chips are designed for running at near critical temps for 10 years |
08:19 | Exaga> | excellent |
08:20 | Exaga> | i was a little concerned but now I'm confident :> |
08:21 | jnettlet> | trust me, we torture test the SOCs before we release them. Have a nice industrial testing oven that we use to push them until failure. It takes a lot. |
08:22 | Exaga> | do you run them in that oven of just bake them? |
08:22 | Exaga> | or* |
08:22 | jnettlet> | we run them |
08:22 | Exaga> | ja cool |
08:23 | Exaga> | so you know the limits beyond the limits |
08:23 | Exaga> | so to speak |
08:28 | jnettlet> | we try to. Are always amazed at corner cases that customers find though. |
08:29 | Exaga> | i bet |
08:36 | vpeter> | Customers are very creative :) |
08:36 | Exaga> | people will find ways nobody else has thought of |
08:36 | Exaga> | everybody works differently |
