Continuous Read Op. From EEPROM

Hello ;

A question digging my mind for a long time ..
I'm aware of that a continous EEPROM write ops to a PIC uC is not recommended since it's got a limitation stated in the datasheets varying between 1M and 10M times ...

How about the continous readings from EEPROM ? Does it have limitations too ? As far as I searched for the datasheet I could not find anything about it ?

Ideas ?

Thanks :)

I know what it is ... Yet the behaviour in pic mcu's may differ ... A clear answer would be appreciated ..

Why should it differ?

There are NO limitations on reading an EEPROM. Where the limitations are involved is in the writing which requires the changing of the cell states.

Thank you so much dave .. That is an answer ..

Check out the F-RAM. Cost more than the usual EEPROM but price has dropped by around half.
SPI or I2C interface devices, no write time delays and a trillion number of read/writes.

Thanks so much ... I'll have a look :) Where can I get the best price on them ? Any suggestion ?

I'm spoiled to get them locally but check their site for regional sales locations here.

Noticed that Fujitsu also makes them too.

Actually that is an answer for your level of IQ.

rmteo, comments like that is bit out of line and unnecessary, aren't they?
If you feel a question is below your level of expertise then I suggest you simply ignore it.

And why not? Look at the comments of the poster.

Mostly because they violate the forum rules. 'nuff said.

Well ...

What I mean by that sentence is : That is an answer I was looking for ... Because the question is clean enough as its answer should be ...
Secondly I've never bragged about my level of IQ , I know who I am , why I'm here , my level of IQ and your level of IQ now , as everyone else does searching for this post ...

Thanks to everyone and for their kind answers (those beneath my level of IQ and over , all of them)
