Buffer handling example for transfer from card to PC
Buffer handling example for transfer from PC to card
Please keep in mind that you are using a continuous buffer writing/reading that will start again at the zero
position if the buffer length is reached. However the DATA_AVAIL_USER_LEN register will give you the com-
plete amount of available bytes even if one part of the free area is at the end of the buffer and the second
half at the beginning of the buffer.

// we now define the transfer buffer with the minimum notify size of on page = 4 kByte
