EEPROM TinyShield [Discontinued]

Add robust storage memory to your TinyDuino with this EEPROM TinyShield. Built around the Microchip 24FC1025, this EEPROM is a simple way to store settings, logs, or any other data your project needs to keep through power cycles.

The EEPROM TinyShield is low power and works through the I2C interface. It has 1 Mbit (128KBytes) of storage and is byte-addressable. Example code is provided to make it simple to add EEPROM support to your projects.
