Device behaviour
A Flag Status Register (FSR), 8 bits, is also available to check the status of the device,
detecting possible errors or a Program/Erase internal cycle in progress.
Each register can be read and modified by means of dedicated instructions in all the 3
protocols (Extended SPI, DIO-SPI, and QIO-SPI).
Reading time for all registers is comparable; writing time instead is very different: NVCR bits
are set as Flash Cell memory content requiring a longer time to perform internal writing
cycles. See Table 33.: AC Characteristics.
