ArduinoEEPROM_RW-v1.0
The first completed version as a public domain release.
I wrote this one day for a personal hack, then I decided to comment it, and write a manual, so anyone can use it.
The actual use was to rewrite the EEPROM in a promotional webkey¹ button.
I read this blog about doing it, but this guy had a Bus Pirate tool. I have no such fancy gadgets, but I had an Arduino Leonardo lying around. So I wrote this interface.
- Webkeys are these small promotional gadgets(this one a button that activated on push) that you can plug into a USB port. They emulate a keyboard, and when you activate the key, it types in something. On a vanilla Windows install this will emulate a
Windows Key
+R
key press to open a Run dialogue and type the company URL programmed in the EEPROM, and hitEnter
