1. Typical values measured at room temperature and nominal voltages and for not cycled
devices.
Notes:
2. Typical and maximum values are sampled, but not 100% tested.
3. Time needed to program the whole array at 0 is included.
4. Maximum value measured at worst case conditions for both temperature and VCC after
100,000 PROGRAM/ERASE cycles.
5. Block erase polling cycle time (see Data polling AC waveforms figure).
6. Intrinsic program timing, that means without the time required to execute the bus cy-
cles to load the PROGRAM commands.
