- uprintf -> dprintf - Fix atsam "vendor" eeprom. - Bump Kinetis K20x to 64 bytes, too. - Rollback Kinetis to 32 bytes as partitioning can only be done once. Add warning about changing the value. - Change RAM-backed "fake" EEPROM implementations to match eeconfig's current usage. - Add 24LC128 by request.

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 |
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. 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
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.
