MAX 10 FPGA clock speed

[dsun01]

MAX 10 FPGA (10M08S, 144-EQFP) Evaluation Kit use 10M08SAE144C8G

MAX 10 data sheet, Table 26, clock tree specifications

I6 == 450MHz, C8 == 402 MHz.

I am very interested to follow the idea described in http://kazus.ru/forums/showthread.php?t=105160

to use a FPGA to implement a FM transmitter. in the example, the author use a 450MHz. I am not so good to create my own design, so I have a question. is it possible to run the C8 grade MAX10 to 450M clock? what is the risk?

Hi David,

The datasheet values are characterized and the guidelines, after the recommended value intel will not provide the support.

However, that does not mean that we cannot use beyond datasheet values.
