5. Parameter tHAR is not applicable if address latching is used.
6. Read Timing is dependent upon the region read and the SYS_CLK
frequency. With a 40 MHZ SYS_CLK, Registers reads typically complete
within 70 ns. Internal memory table reads typically complete within 110 ns,
and external memory reads typically complete within 180ns to 200 ns.
However memory accesses can take up to 10 us if there is a lot of contention.
7. WRB must be high during reads.

* Microprocessor may momentarily experience excessive delays when
accessing the external SSRAM, but will average 10-15 SYSCLK cycles.
Microprocessor accesses to internal registers will not experience these
excessive delays.
