How many times can i write/erase internal flash?

Hi. i'm using nRF52832. As datasheet says, flash endurance min value = 10,000. Isn't there max value? There is no limited life cycle for flash?

I just wnat to estimate its life cycle.

I need your help.

  • Hi,

    You should use the 10,000 erase/write cycle value to estimate the life of the device. Basically what this means is you can reliably perform NVM operations on the flash memory up until 10,000 erase/write cycles. You can still perform NVM operations even after 10,000 erase/write cycles, but there is no guarantee that you will be able to reliably perform the NVM operations once this value is exceeded. They gave you a min value to indicate that this is the number of erase/write cycles for reliable NVM operations. Beyond that you are on your own!

  • Thank you very much for your help.
