NOTE
The CPU operating frequency and the temperature are inter-dependent. This means that for a given
temperature, a maximum CPU operating frequency is achievable, and conversely for a given CPU
operating frequency, a maximum temperature is achievable. This is further affected by the build level,
which dictates the maximum ambient temperature at which the board can operate per
A.5 "Environmental Specifications"
