When the EPI module is in SDRAM mode, EPI CLK must be configured to 12 mA. The EPI data
bus can be configured to 8 mA. Table 27-39 on page 1853 shows the rise and fall times in SDRAM
mode. When the EPI module is in Host-Bus or General-Purpose mode, the values in “Input/Output
Pin Characteristics” on page 1849 should be used.
