Add customisable EEPROM driver selection (#7274)
- 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.

1 | # EEPROM Driver Configuration | ||
2 | |||
3 | The EEPROM driver can be swapped out depending on the needs of the keyboard, or whether extra hardware is present. | ||
4 | |||
5 | Driver | Description | ||
6 | --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ||
7 | `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. | ||
8 | `EEPROM_DRIVER = i2c` | Supports writing to I2C-based 24xx EEPROM chips. See the driver section below. | ||
9 | `EEPROM_DRIVER = transient` | Fake EEPROM driver -- supports reading/writing to RAM, and will be discarded when power is lost. | ||
10 | |||
11 | ## Vendor Driver Configuration | ||
12 | |||
13 | No configurable options are available. | ||
14 | |||
15 | ## I2C Driver Configuration | ||
16 | |||
17 | 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: | ||
18 | |||
19 | `config.h` override | Description | Default Value | ||
20 | ------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ | ||
21 | `#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_I2C_BASE_ADDRESS` | Base I2C address for the EEPROM -- shifted left by 1 as per i2c_master requirements | 0b10100000 | ||
22 | `#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_I2C_ADDRESS(addr)` | Calculated I2C address for the EEPROM | `(EXTERNAL_EEPROM_I2C_BASE_ADDRESS)` | ||
23 | `#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_BYTE_COUNT` | Total size of the EEPROM in bytes | 8192 | ||
24 | `#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_PAGE_SIZE` | Page size of the EEPROM in bytes, as specified in the datasheet | 32 | ||
25 | `#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_ADDRESS_SIZE` | The number of bytes to transmit for the memory location within the EEPROM | 2 | ||
26 | `#define EXTERNAL_EEPROM_WRITE_TIME` | Write cycle time of the EEPROM, as specified in the datasheet | 5 | ||
27 | |||
28 | Default values and extended descriptions can be found in `drivers/eeprom/eeprom_i2c.h`. | ||
29 | |||
30 | Alternatively, there are pre-defined hardware configurations for available chips/modules: | ||
31 | |||
32 | Module | Equivalent `#define` | Source | ||
33 | -----------------|---------------------------------|------------------------------------------ | ||
34 | CAT24C512 EEPROM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_CAT24C512` | <https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14764> | ||
35 | RM24C512C EEPROM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_RM24C512C` | <https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14764> | ||
36 | 24LC128 EEPROM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_24LC128` | <https://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/en/24LC128> | ||
37 | 24LC256 EEPROM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_24LC256` | <https://www.sparkfun.com/products/525> | ||
38 | MB85RC256V FRAM | `#define EEPROM_I2C_MB85RC256V` | <https://www.adafruit.com/product/1895> | ||
39 | |||
40 | ?> 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`. | ||
41 | |||
42 | ## Transient Driver configuration | ||
43 | |||
44 | The only configurable item for the transient EEPROM driver is its size: | ||
45 | |||
46 | `config.h` override | Description | Default Value | ||
47 | ------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | ------------- | ||
48 | `#define TRANSIENT_EEPROM_SIZE` | Total size of the EEPROM storage in bytes | 64 | ||
49 | |||
50 | Default values and extended descriptions can be found in `drivers/eeprom/eeprom_transient.h`. | ||
