EEPROM component
A means of reading data from and writing data to the EEPROM memory onboard the microcontroller. Fully functional with simulation but the target microcontroller must have EEPROM memory available to allow compilation to work.
Component Source Code

Examples
The Console window can be used to show the contents of EE memory during simulation.
Read and Write Bytes
Reads a value from location 0 in the EEPROM and writes back the value incremented by one, the values are displayed on to a LCD.
Starting and stopping the simulation or resetting the microcontroller will allow the program to resume counting from where it left off as opposed to a standard RAM based variable which would reset to an undetermined value.
EEPROM
Read and Write Ints
Reads a value from locations 0,1 in the EEPROM and writes back the value incremented by one, the values are displayed on to a LCD.
Starting and stopping the simulation or resetting the microcontroller will allow the program to resume counting from where it left off as opposed to a standard RAM based variable which would reset to an undetermined value.

Properties
|
|
EE Size
|
Number of memory locations available in EEPROM onboard the target microcontroller.
|
|
EE Bit Depth
|
Number of bits in each EEPROM memory location onboard the target microcontroller.
|
|
Initial Values
|
Comma seperated list of values to assign to the EEPROM memory while programming the device. The simulation will automatically load these values into the simulated EE locations on simulation start. Leave blank to remove initialisation code from the compiled C code Supported Formats Decimal 0 - 255 Hexadecimal 0x00 - 0xFF ASCII character 'x' Strings "text"
|
|
Reset To Defaults
|
Decides what to do on a simulation start event. Siim data will reset to initial values after reloading project or changing initial values property. Yes: Resets the contents of the EEPROM data to the initial values. No: EEPROM contents will be retained between simulations.
