# EEPROM Driver Configuration
|
|
|
|
The EEPROM driver can be swapped out depending on the needs of the keyboard, or whether extra hardware is present.
|
|
|
|
Driver | Description
|
|
-----------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
`EEPROM_DRIVER = vendor` (default) | Uses the on-chip driver provided by the chip manufacturer. For AVR, this is provided by avr-libc. This is supported on ARM for a subset of chips -- STM32F3xx, STM32F1xx, and STM32F072xB will be emulated by writing to flash. STM32L0xx and STM32L1xx will use the onboard dedicated true EEPROM. Other chips will generally act as "transient" below.
|
|
`EEPROM_DRIVER = i2c` | Supports writing to I2C-based 24xx EEPROM chips. See the driver section below.
|
|
`EEPROM_DRIVER = transient` | Fake EEPROM driver -- supports reading/writing to RAM, and will be discarded when power is lost.
|
|
|
|
## Vendor Driver Configuration
|
|
|
|
!> Resetting EEPROM using an STM32L0/L1 device takes up to 1 second for every 1kB of internal EEPROM used.
|
|
|
|
No configurable options are available.
|
|
|
|
## I2C Driver Configuration
|
|
|
|
Currently QMK supports 24xx-series chips over I2C. As such, requires a working i2c_master driver configuration. You can override the driver configuration via your config.h:
|
|
|
|
`config.h` override | Description | Default Value
|
|
------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------
|
|
`#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_I2C_BASE_ADDRESS` | Base I2C address for the EEPROM -- shifted left by 1 as per i2c_master requirements | 0b10100000
|
|
`#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_I2C_ADDRESS(addr)` | Calculated I2C address for the EEPROM | `(EXTERNAL_EEPROM_I2C_BASE_ADDRESS)`
|
|
`#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_BYTE_COUNT` | Total size of the EEPROM in bytes | 8192
|
|
`#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_PAGE_SIZE` | Page size of the EEPROM in bytes, as specified in the datasheet | 32
|
|
`#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_ADDRESS_SIZE` | The number of bytes to transmit for the memory location within the EEPROM | 2
|
|
`#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_WRITE_TIME` | Write cycle time of the EEPROM, as specified in the datasheet | 5
|
|
|
|
Default values and extended descriptions can be found in `drivers/eeprom/eeprom_i2c.h`.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, there are pre-defined hardware configurations for available chips/modules:
|
|
|
|
Module | Equivalent `#define` | Source
|
|
-----------------|---------------------------------|------------------------------------------
|
|
CAT24C512 EEPROM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_CAT24C512` | <https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14764>
|
|
RM24C512C EEPROM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_RM24C512C` | <https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14764>
|
|
24LC128 EEPROM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_24LC128` | <https://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/en/24LC128>
|
|
24LC256 EEPROM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_24LC256` | <https://www.sparkfun.com/products/525>
|
|
MB85RC256V FRAM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_MB85RC256V` | <https://www.adafruit.com/product/1895>
|
|
|
|
?> If you find that the EEPROM is not cooperating, ensure you've correctly shifted up your EEPROM address by 1. For example, the datasheet might state the address as `0b01010000` -- the correct value of `EXTERNAL_EEPROM_I2C_BASE_ADDRESS` needs to be `0b10100000`.
|
|
|
|
## Transient Driver configuration
|
|
|
|
The only configurable item for the transient EEPROM driver is its size:
|
|
|
|
`config.h` override | Description | Default Value
|
|
------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | -------------
|
|
`#define TRANSIENT_EEPROM_SIZE` | Total size of the EEPROM storage in bytes | 64
|
|
|
|
Default values and extended descriptions can be found in `drivers/eeprom/eeprom_transient.h`.
