CDCI6214: Programming Cycles

user5850039

Part Number: CDCI6214

Hi, support team.

I can see programming cycles, Min 10 cycles, Max 10,000 cycles, in the datasheet.

Then I have questions.

1. What does "Min 10 cycles" mean ? Isn't it too little?

2. What does the "cycles" mean?

Best Regards,

Hello,

10 cycles mean only 10 programmings are assured, but many more may be possible.

Each cycle is a programming of the EEPROM.

Hi,

Let me ask you additional question about cycles.

If we write data to an address (ex. 0x00), is it one cycle?

Then for whole address (0x00-0x3F), is it 64 cycles?

If so, I think "Min 10 cycles" is not appropriate.

It is one cycle for address 0x00.

No, it is one cycle for each address from address 0x00 to 0x3f.

So you can achieve ten full programming programmings.
