1.13 EEPROM Read Write
This example application demonstrates how to use the EEPROM peripheral library.
Description
This example uses the EEPROM peripheral library to perform the following operations:
- Performs write of 512 bytes of data into EEPROM and verifies the values by reading back
- Performs page erase and verifies by reading
- Performs bulk erase and verifies by reading
