MAX II UFM Reading Cycles

Hi there, 

I have a question about the number of reading cycles which could be performed in the UFM? I'm constantly reading the flash memory in order to get calibration data. In the datasheet provided by Altera there is only specification for the number of erase and reprogram cycles. 

 

Thanks in advance. 

 

Best regards, 

VT

You can read the UFM indefinitely... the flash wears out on erase and program cycles for which UFM has very low spec of 100 program cycles
