cyberster / arduino-spi-eeprom-reader-writer

Read/Write WINBOND SPI Based EEPROM Chips Using Any Arduino board. Should work with other brands too.

Read carefully before using this project

Steps to download the content of EEPROM into a file:

1. First, make download_rom() function only active and flash the sketch into your arduino.
2. Configure serial port and baud rate in download_rom.py according to your arduino sketch.
3. Press reset button in your arduino.
4. Run download_rom.py by entering 'python2.7 download_rom.py' in your terminal/cmd window.
5. Now press 'd' and hit enter in the prompt in your terminal/cmd window and wait for finish.

Steps to upload a file from computer to the EEPROM:

1. First, make upload_rom() function only active and flash the sketch into your arduino.
2. Configure serial port and baud rate in upload_rom.py according to your arduino sketch.
3. Run upload_rom.py by entering 'python2.7 upload_rom.py' in your terminal/cmd window.
4. Press reset button in your arduino.
5. Enter the file path i.e. '/path/to/the/file.rom' and hit enter and wait for finish.

arduino-spi-eeprom-reader-writer's Issues

Scripts use python2.7

Ugh, one of the reasons I really hate python...

Seriously, these scripts need to be rewritten to python3.
