1. There is additional overhead which is part of the programming sequence. See the 56F8300 Peripheral User Manual
for details. Program time is per 16-bit word in Flash memory. Two words at a time can be programmed within the Pro-
gram Flash Module, as it contains two interleaved memories.
2. Specifies page erase time. There are 512 bytes per page in the Data and Boot Flash memories. The Program Flash
Module uses two interleaved Flash memories, increasing the effective page size to 1024 bytes.

1. Parameters listed are guaranteed by design.
2. See Figure 10-4 for details on using the recommended connection of an external clock driver.
3. The high or low pulse width must be no smaller than 8.0ns or the chip will not function.
4. External clock input rise time is measured from 10% to 90%.
5. External clock input fall time is measured from 90% to 10%.
