1.3.2. Timing Specifications

The following tables show the general comparison of the EPCS, EPCQ, and EPCQ-A operation timing. For more detailed and up-to-date information, refer to the respective device datasheet.

CAUTION:
You need to take note of these values to avoid from the migration to fail:
  • t DH
  • t DSU
  • t nCLK2D/tCLQV
  • tCLQX 13
