I2C FRAM

I2C FRAM

[Sergei Sharonov]

Hi,

sory if this is FAQ, but I got a 64 kBit FRAM on I2C bus (FM24CL64) and I was
wandering what is the best way to make it usable? Is there an mtd driver to turn
it into a char and/or block device?

Hi, Sergei,

For I2C related stuff please have a look at the lm_sensors project at
http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/

There are generic drivers for the widely used I2C eeproms which you
can use/modify/... for several platforms.
Please check the documentation there.

Greets,

Thanks, man. Yea, I've see that page.

It looks like it is geared more towards sensors and really small eeproms.
I thought that FRAM would be more on line with MTD. I was/am hoping to use
FRAM for a transaction log and possibly do a bit of buffering for NAND.
