1. Evaluated by characterization - Not tested in production.

2. With CL = 10 pF.

3. There is no min. or max. values for the input signal rise and fall times. It is however recommended by the I²C specification

that the input signal rise and fall times be more than 20 ns and less than 300 ns when fC < 400 kHz.

4. The min value for tCLQX (data out hold time) of the M24xxx devices offers a safe timing to bridge the undefined region of the

falling edge SCL.

5. tCLQV is the time (from the falling edge of SCL) required by the SDA bus line to reach either 0.3 VCC or 0.7 VCC, assuming

that Rbus × Cbus time constant is within the values specified in Figure 11.
