Hi Bob,

Thank you Bob, Jan-Erik, and everyone else for your comments (and
patience?). This has been a good thread.

Yes, I realize that endurance is per memory location -- that I knew
previously for sure and verified with Microchip. I guess where I went wrong
with my thinking is that I assumed that the D124 E/W number was also a total
number on a per memory location basis. As you can see, if you make that
assumption, things don't make sense.

But as I previously said, I plan on contacting Microchip about this to get
more details. I wish they went into some more details about this subject in
the data sheet. I'll try to remember to add to this thread if I get some
further details from them that could help everyone.

Thanks again everyone -- I appreciate everyone's time.

Have a great weekend!

Regards,

Ken Pergola

Endurance is per memory location.

Refresh is required for any cells that have not been written during
1,000,000 writes across all memory locations.
