NOTES:
  1. All timings are referenced from VIL max and VIH min on inputs and VOL max and VOH min on outputs.
  2. TWCS is measured from the later of high or low. must be low at least until the end of high.
  3. TCO is measured from the later of high or low. Valid data is available only after the later of TACC or TCO.
