14.4.3.16 SPI Status 8 Register
The following table describes the SPI status 8 (STAT8) register. This register allows the important status
bits to be read as a single 8-bit value. This reduces the overhead of checking the Status register bits
when an 8-bit processor is being used.

Software should not rely on the value of a
reserved bit. To provide compatibility with future
products, the value of a reserved bit should be
preserved across a read-modify-write operation.
