31.10.12 Virtual Flash Page Read Register

The Virtual Flash Page Read Register is a virtual scan chain with length equal to the number of bits in one Flash page plus 8. Internally the Shift Register is 8-bit, and the data are automatically transferred from the Flash data page byte by byte. The first eight cycles are used to transfer the first byte to the internal Shift Register, and the bits that are shifted out during these 8 cycles should be ignored. Following this initialization, data are shifted out starting with the LSB of the first instruction in the page and ending with the MSB of the last instruction in the page. This provides an efficient way to read one full Flash page to verify programming.
