FLEXCOM SPI EEPROM read write
This example application shows how to use the flexcom module in SPI mode.
Description
This application configures the flexcom peripheral in SPI mode to read and write data from an external EEPROM memory chip. Data is written to the EEPROM and then read back and compared. Successful comparison is indicated by turning on an LED.
