1. To preserve data integrity, each page of a DataFlash sector must be updated/rewritten at least once within every 10,000
2. A Page Address Pointer must be maintained to indicate which page is to be rewritten. The Auto Page Rewrite command
3. Other algorithms can be used to rewrite portions of the Flash array. Low-power applications may choose to wait until 10,000
