 I am looking at legacy code in nRF24LE1 that has to be ported to a new chip, nRF52xx. 
 
 The thing that I have come across is a strange thing in the datasheet of nRF24LE1: It appears as there are two different status registers that give</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Fri, 29 Mar 2019 11:31:51 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/45421/double-representation-in-chip-really" /><item><title>RE: Double representation in chip, really??</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/179206?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 29 Mar 2019 11:31:51 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:461e5caf-5c5a-4e34-8448-bee73ee2b361</guid><dc:creator>run_ar</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;1) These are the same.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2) As you say you have data pipe information in addition in the status register. So you should check that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Double representation in chip, really??</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/178872?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 28 Mar 2019 09:56:58 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:85cae26a-8fbf-48dd-9173-cb2078e09eb8</guid><dc:creator>Gustav</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Just to clarify. The apparent double representations in the nRF24LE1 are here:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;STATUS bit 0 is TX_FULL&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;FIFO_STATUS bit 5 is &amp;quot;also?&amp;quot; TX_FULL&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;STATUS bit 3:1 RX_P_NO is RX_EMPTY&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;FIFO_STATUS bit 0 is &amp;quot;also?&amp;quot; RX_EMPTY&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am just wondering if they are exactly the same or if there could in some circumstances be a reason to read from the STATUS register instead of the FIFO_STATUS register, or vice versa.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
