4.3.1.4 Response Length

The response length indicates the length of the Programming Executive’s response in 16-bit words. This field includes the two words of the response header.

With the exception of the response for the read commands, the length of each response is only two words.

The response to the READP commands uses the packed instruction word format described in Packed Data Format. When reading an odd number of Program Memory Words (N odd), the response to the READP command is (3 * (N + 1)/2 + 2) words. When reading an even number of Program Memory Words (N even), the response to the READP command is (3 * N/2 + 2) words.
