Writing EEprom

[DanielD]

Need to know instruction or routine to write eeprom on min/max51. Can it be written one byte at a time.

If you use 8051/52 development system
you will be able to find EEPROM example under
C:\\bipom\\devtools\\MicroC\\Examples\\8051\\tiny\\eeprom\\24C04 folder.
Please try it.

Best regards,

Thank you very much for the help.  However, I have another problem.  If I write to an eeprom address over 255 (8 bits) it writes to the target address and also to the target address minus 256.  For example if I write to 256 it will write the data to address 256 and address 0.  Any solutions for this?  Is there a format for writing the address over 256?  I\'m using WriteByte from the example programs on a MinMax51c with a T89C51RD2 and serial eeprom.


WriteByte( deviceNumber, address, data )
UBYTE deviceNumber;
unsigned  address;
UBYTE data;
{
   ERRCODE ec;
   unsigned temp;

   ec = Start();

   if( ec != SUCCESS )
       return ec;

   ec = Transmit( I2C_DEVICE_24CXX | I2C_WRITE | (deviceNumber << 1) );

   if( ec != SUCCESS )
       goto func_end;

   ec = Transmit( address & 0xFF );

   if( ec != SUCCESS )
       goto func_end;

   ec = Transmit( data );
   
     printf("\\nWriteByte=%d",data);
     

   if( ec != SUCCESS )
       goto func_end;

func_end:

   Stop();

   return ec;
}

Please note, you changed the original  source.
It had contained
....

   deviceNumber |= (address >> ;
   ec = Transmit( I2C_DEVICE_24CXX | I2C_WRITE | (deviceNumber << 1) );
...

[vitaliy]

sorry

   deviceNumber |= (address >> 8 ) ;

   ec = Transmit( I2C_DEVICE_24CXX | I2C_WRITE | (deviceNumber << 1) );

 Vitaliy,

I don\'t know how I made that mistake (I originally pasted it into my code), but thanks, I was really having trouble finding the error.

I have another question concerning eeproms.  Do you have a routine available for reading and writing on chip eeproms on the AT89C51ED2?
