It has been found that the default pulse-skipping mode of the LTC3676 regulators produces noise that the IMX6 is especially susceptible to when run in ldo-bypass mode. Switch to continuous PWM mode to provide a cleaner rail, as well as 1MHz switching frequency for EMI reduction. There is no noticeable drop in efficiency between pulse-skipping mode and PWM mode in the Ventana IMX6 use case.
