My orin nano has been upgraded to jetpack 6.2 with no performance improvement or CPU/GPU frequency

[whjshishen]

1, no 25W power selection
2, CPU frequency is still 1.5GHZ, GPU frequency is 625MHZ

To sum up, the upgrade to jetpack6.2 did not improve, is there a problem?

Hello @whjshishen

I think you are trying to enable the Orin Nano Super Mode. You have to flash the board by using a specific could. Please refer to Quick Start — NVIDIA Jetson Linux Developer Guide 1 documentation which refers to the Supported Modes and Power Efficiency.

The command you need to run depends on the flashed device:

• Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit with Super Configuration (NVMe)

sudo ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device nvme0n1p1 \
  -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_t234_nvme.xml -p "-c bootloader/generic/cfg/flash_t234_qspi.xml" \
  --showlogs --network usb0 jetson-orin-nano-devkit-super internal

• Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit with Super Configuration (USB):

sudo ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device sda1 \
  -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_t234_nvme.xml -p "-c bootloader/generic/cfg/flash_t234_qspi.xml" \
  --showlogs --network usb0 jetson-orin-nano-devkit-super internal

• Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit with Super Configuration (SD card):

sudo ./tools/kernel_flash/l4t_initrd_flash.sh --external-device mmcblk0p1 \
  -c tools/kernel_flash/flash_l4t_t234_nvme.xml -p "-c bootloader/generic/cfg/flash_t234_qspi.xml" \
  --showlogs --network usb0 jetson-orin-nano-devkit-super internal

You could also check our Exploring NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano Super Mode performance using Generative AI wiki which details instructions on how to enable the Jetson Orin Super Nano mode and how to verify that was enabled with success.

Furthermore, you could check this announcement from NVIDIA JetPack 6.2 Brings Super Mode to NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano and Jetson Orin NX Modules

Please, let me know if this works for you

Yes, I have tried it yesterday, the conclusion is effective, I successfully ran MAXN mode, I have a question, can only do this? Why did I fail to upgrade jetpack6.2 with SDK Manager?

please check the announcements.

JetPack 6.2 Brings Super Mode to NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano and Jetson Orin NX Modules

We are pleased to announce the production release of JetPack 6.2. JetPack 6.2 packages Jetson Linux 36.4.3 with Linux Kernel 5.15 and Ubuntu 22.04 based root file system. Jetpack 6.2 brings Super Mode to NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano and Jetson Orin NX modules. With Super Mode, the Jetson Orin NX series achieves up to a 70% increase in AI TOPS, while the Jetson Orin Nano series delivers comparable AI TOPS improvements alongside a 50% boost in memory bandwidth. The improved performance delivers up to 2…

→ * Note that SDK Manager supports default Super Mode flashing configuration only for Jetson Orin Nano developer kit.

Only the Orin Nano with sdcard slot on it will be by default flashed with super config. The rest of kinds rely on manual flash.
