Hi,
Planning to use VFQFPN68 package. I am confused about the max core clock I can use. CubeMx shows 550MHz for every "Power Regulator Voltage Scale (0-3)".
I remember reading VFQFPN68 has only DCDC solution so max core clock is 400MHz
Can anyone explain please?
Thanks,
Tim

Hello,
I think you are talking about STM32H7 dual core that has that restriction in SMPS mode:
But STM32H723 doesn't have such restriction in SMPS mode:

Max clock speed is 550 MHz.
Achieved only in VOS0 and BOOST.
