EEPROM Sample

Overview

This sample demonstrates the EEPROM driver API in a simple boot counter application.

Building and Running

In case the target board has defined an EEPROM with alias eeprom-0 the sample can be built without further ado. This applies for example to the :ref:`native_posix` board:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/drivers/eeprom
   :host-os: unix
   :board: native_posix
   :goals: run
   :compact:

Otherwise either a board specific overlay needs to be defined, or a shield must be activated. Any board with Arduino headers can for example build the sample as follows:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/drivers/eeprom
   :board: nrf52840dk_nrf52840
   :goals: build
   :shield: x_nucleo_eeprma2
   :compact:

For :ref:`gd32f450i_eval` board. First bridge the JP5 to USART with the jumper cap, Then the sample can be built and executed for the as follows:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/drivers/eeprom
   :board: gd32f450i_eval
   :goals: build flash
   :compact:

Sample Output

Found EEPROM device "EEPROM_M24C02"
Using eeprom with size of: 256.
Device booted 7 times.
Reset the MCU to see the increasing boot counter.
