processing time. When this happens, burst timing and host
communications can slow down and become erratic.
5.7 Timing Limitations
The device requires processing time between bursts, as well
as time to handle communications with the host. With short
burst spacings, long burst lengths, and long intra-burst pulse
spacings, the device can simply run out of available
Burst spacings should be verified on an oscilloscope during
development to be certain that the device timings are
preserved and are constant. If not, the burst length and/or
pulse spacing should be reduced.
