Original Assignment

Do not erase this section!

Your assignment is to interface to the I2C 24AA1025 EEPROM chip.

Overview

You can use the PIC32 to communicate with an EEPROM chip using I2C. The EEPROM chip can store data sent from the PIC and be retrieved at a later time (like an external hardrive).

To test that the code data was writing and reading correctly, the attached code sends data to the EEPROM through I2C, then from the EEPROM back to the PIC, and out to a LED display screen.

Circuit

Connection schematic for 24AA1025 Chip.

For visual feedback the PIC32 was connected to and LCD screen(1602A1 USB-A/Mini-B5-06):

Timing

Table of times for sending data

# of Characters sendChar sendString
5 3.88 ms 3.79 ms
250 32.4 ms 30.8 ms

Table of times for reading data

# of Characters receiveString
5 0.93 ms
250 26.8 ms

Note, we are able to read a single character using the recieveChar function, but cannot read a string.
