Hi gang!
Before I go reinventing the wheel... Is there a program already developed to pre-load an i2c memory chip (24lc256) from a text file? I'm thinking of using a terminal program to send to the picaxe at 300 baud... This would give me enough time between bytes to do a page write every 64 bytes without losing anything on the serial line.
I just wanted to see if this had been done before?
I also have a pickit3... but I don't see a way to program the ram with it... But I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed!
Maybe I should dig out a different USB serial adapter and try to use hardware flow control? Am I making this too complicated?
Thanks!
