Note:

(1) This parameter is tested initially and after a design or process change that affects the parameter.

The write cycle time is the time from a valid stop

condition of a write sequence to the end of the internal

program/erase cycle. During the write cycle, the bus

interface circuits are disabled, SDA is allowed to remain

high, and the device does not respond to its slave

address.
