PRODUCTION DATA
The host initiates every transaction between the host and device. The device never transmits data without first receiving a command frame from the host. A command frame is a communication frame sent from host to the device; a response frame is a response (to a read command) from device to host. After a command frame is transmitted, the host must wait for all expected responses to be returned (or a timeout in case of error) before initiating a new command frame. The commands supported by the device are listed in Table 8-9.
