SPI EEPROM write read

This example application demonstrates how to use the SPI peripheral to write and read from the SPI serial EEPROM memory.

Description

This example uses the SPI peripheral library to write an array of values to the SPI Serial EEPROM and verify the value written by reading the values back and comparing it to the value written. The example application performs the EEPROM writing only once after a power on reset.

Running the Application

• Build and program the application using its IDE
• LED indicates the success or failure:
  • LED is turned ON when the value read from the EEPROM matched with the written value
  • LED is turned OFF when the value read from the EEPROM did not match with the written value

Following table provides LED names:
