3.3.2 Memory Programming Specifications

A clarification of the Memory Programming Specifications has been made. The title of the table Programming Times has been updated to Memory Programming Specifications in the Electrical Characteristics section of the current device data sheet ( www.microchip.com/DS40002288). Functional change is shown in bold.

Data found in the “Typ.” column is at TA = 25°C and VDD = 3.0V unless otherwise specified. These parameters are not tested and are for design guidance only.

* These parameters are characterized but not tested in production.

Note:
  1. During Chip Erase, the Brown-out Detector (BOD) configured with BODLEVEL0 is forced ON. The erase attempt will fail if the supply voltage VDD is below VBOD for BODLEVEL0.
