PRODUCTION DATA
To read the scratchpad, the host issues the Read Scratchpad command (AAh) and then reads the 2-byte address, the Ending Offset/Data Status byte (E/S), and finally the scratchpad data starting at the scratchpad offset address. The host verifies the address, E/S byte, and the scratchpad data match with the information transmitted during the Write Scratchpad command. The validity of the 2-byte address and the scratchpad data can be verified with the Read Scratchpad command. The host can read the inverted CRC16 once reaching the end of the scratchpad. If the host continues reading after reading the 2 CRC bytes, the host only receives 1s.
