As such, requires a working i `#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 +`#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_WP_PIN` | If defined the WP pin will be toggled appropriately when writing to the EEPROM. | _none_ + +Some I2C EEPROM manufacturers explicitly recommend against hardcoding the WP pin to ground. This is in order to protect the eeprom memory content during power-up/power-down/brown-out conditions at low voltage where the eeprom is still operational, but the i2c master output might be unpredictable. If a WP pin is configured, then having an external pull-up on the WP pin is recommended. Default values and extended descriptions can be found in `drivers/eeprom/eeprom_i2c.h`. |
