† Data in “Typ” column is at 5.0 V, 25C unless otherwise stated. These parameters are for design guidance only and are not
tested.
Note 1: Instruction cycle period (T
CY) equals four times the input oscillator time-base period. All specified values are based on
characterization data for that particular oscillator type under standard operating conditions with the device executing
code. Exceeding these specified limits may result in an unstable oscillator operation and/or higher than expected current
consumption. All devices are tested to operate at “min.” values with an external clock applied to the OSC1 pin.
When an external clock input is used, the “Max.” cycle time limit is “DC” (no clock) for all devices.
