These parameters are characterized but not tested.
Note 1: As a transmitter, the device must provide this internal minimum delay time to bridge the undefined region
(min. 300 ns) of the falling edge of SCL to avoid unintended generation of Start or Stop conditions.
2: A Fast mode (400 kHz) I2C™ bus device can be used in a Standard mode (100 kHz) I2C bus system but
the requirement, TSU:DAT ≥ 250 ns, must then be met. This will automatically be the case if the device does
not stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal. If such a device does stretch the LOW period of the SCL
signal, it must output the next data bit to the SDA line, TR max. + TSU:DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250 ns
(according to the Standard mode I2C bus specification), before the SCL line is released.
