SPI EEPROM AT25 driver - EEPROM Read Write

This example application shows how to use the AT25 driver to perform read and write operations on AT25 series of EEPROM

Description

This example uses the AT25 driver to communicate with the SPI based AT25 series of external EEPROMs to perform write and read operations in Bare-Metal environment.
