Fujitsu MPF3XXXAT manual BSY Drdy DRQ Intrq

Note:

For transfer of a sector of data, the host needs to read Status register (X'1F7') in order to clear INTRQ (interrupt) signal. The Status register should be read within a period from the DRQ setting by the device to starting of the sector data transfer. Note that the host does not need to read the Status register for the reading of a single sector or the last sector in multiple-sector reading. If the timing to read the Status register does not meet above condition, normal data transfer operation is not guaranteed.

When the host new command even if the device requests the data transfer (setting in DRQ bit), the correct device operation is not guaranteed.
