Note
B1.4 in the MC100 control bits is used as a READY- /BUSY bit for explicit parameter transfer.
The data bit will go low when accepting an explicit parameter transfer and will go high again
when the data is processed, thereby enabling a new transfer. This handshake mechanism
MUST be respected otherwise data will be lost.
