D9	t_IDLE	Bus Idle Condition	Controller	1000000		ns
D10	t_MMLOCK	Time Internal Where New Controller Not Driving SDA Low	Controller	t_AVALmin		ns

This is approximately equal to t_LOWmin + t_{DS_ODmin} + t_{rDA_ODtyp} + t_{SU_Odmin}.
The Controller may use a shorter Low period if the Controller knows that this is safe, when SDA is already above V_IH.
Based on t_SPIKE, rise and fall times, and interconnect.
This maximum High period may be exceeded when the signals can be safely seen by Legacy I2C Devices, and/or in consideration of the interconnect (for example: a short Bus).
On a Legacy Bus where I2C Devices need to see Start, the t_CAS Min value is further constrained.
Targets that do not support the optional ENTASx CCCs shall use the t_CAS Max value shown for ENTAS3.
On a Mixed Bus with Fm Legacy I2C Devices, t_AVAL is 300ns shorter than the Fm Bus Free Condition time (t_BUF).

FSCL = 1 / (t_{DIG_L} + t_{DIG_H})
t_{DIG_L} and t_{DIG_H} are the clock Low and High periods as seen at the receiver end of the I3C Bus using V_IL and V_IH.
When communicating with an I3C Device on a mixed Bus, the t_{DIG_H_MIXED} period must be constrained to make sure that I2C Devices do not interpret I3C signaling as valid I2C signaling.
As both edges are used, the hold time needs to be satisfied for the respective edges; t_CF + 3 for falling edge clocks, and t_CR + 3 for rising edge clocks.
Clock Frequency Minimum 0.01 MHz, Maximum 12.5 MHz
