NAME

eepromer - reads and writes 24Cxx EEPROMs connected to I2C serial bus

DESCRIPTION

The EEPROM must be a large EEPROM which uses a 2-byte address field (24C32 or larger). It will NOT WORK on small EEPROMs (24C01 - 24C16) such as those used on SDRAM DIMMs.  

NOTES

Don't forget to load your i2c chipset and the i2c-dev drivers.

Tested only on 24C256.
