Expanding EEPROM - Paul_Lav - Jul 30 3:18:00 2003


Just wondering, is it possible to buy a IC to expand EEPROM memory to the pic? And what sort of I/O do they take to run?

It will not expand the on-board EEPROM in a seamless way, but there are numerous external 8-pin EEPROMs available, for instance from Microchip or Atmel. Protocol is SPI or I2C (although they often don't use that name). IIRC Dallas makes EEPROMs with their 1-wire protocol.

I have found some EEPROM's. Microchip are the cheapest, anyone ever used one of them? 24LC08BP or 24LC16BP? They are I2C and easily understandable!
 
Thanks,
Paul

Microchip has some application notes about I2C. If the PIC you are
using has the MSSP port then I2C hardware is built in. If not, you
can use the 'bit-bang' approach where you wiggle the clock and data
lines with code. If you are only using an EEPROM the bit-bang
approach might be the easiest to implement at least for a start.

Re: Re: Expanding EEPROM - Paul_Lav - Aug 2 3:01:00 2003

Hi, the pic is a 16F877. I have found the chapter on the datasheet an am downloading AN578. Would it be easier to do it manually or is this function usefull when going?
 
Thanks,
Paul
