Bank

This project extends Arduino memory using EEProm for non-volatile data storage. We searched for analogous projects on the net seeing that there are a lot of good ideas but actually none of these are really complete and fully functional. All the project (very different in hardware configuration) works fine with only one device, while our goal was to create a flexible memory bank based on I²C eeprom devices.

There are also interesting choices in hardware configuration and interesting aspects explored testing the project with AT and LC devices.

The central idea

The main idea that stay behind this project is the complete exploitment of the capabilities of I²C bus memory devices.

While hardware is structured and scalable (read more on the project page) the software library, inspired to the AT24C1024 library, can be customized by the user to support different kind of devices and different memory sizes.
