Freescale Semiconductor 317
Program and erase operations do not require any special power sources other than the normal V
DD
supply.
For more detailed information about program/erase operations, see Chapter 4, “Memory.”
A.13 EMC Performance
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) performance is highly dependant on the environment in which the
MCU resides. Board design and layout, circuit topology choices, location and characteristics of external
components as well as MCU software operation all play a significant role in EMC performance. The
system designer should consult Freescale applications notes such as AN2321, AN1050, AN1263,
AN2764, and AN1259 for advice and guidance specifically targeted at optimizing EMC performance.
