Technical discussions about the TI C55x DSPs (including the c5501, c5502, c5503, c5507, c5509, c5510 and OMAP5910).

It's not uncommon for TI devices to run beyond their specs. We've pushed many clock rates and mem bus rates beyond the data sheet in the lab for test and measurement purposes, or for prototype/demo purposes, but not for production. Here is a TI paper by TI super-expert Gene Frantz that says "you can", but gives a number of caveats: http://focus.ti.com/lit/ml/spry102/spry102.pdf -Jeff
