I am interested in using this eeprom for a project. I have used used I2C devices before and usually the datasheet gave the embedded address somewhere. For the life of me I can't seem to find it on their datasheet.
Anyone want to show me where the heck it is? I feel quite silly as I even tried CTRL+F to find keywords on the datasheet.
That EEPROM has a size of 2048 bytes, which requires 11 bits to address. The datasheet states:
Thus, it says the four most significant bits of the device/slave address byte are "1010", and the next 3 bits are the 3 most significant bits of the memory address to be accessed, with the 8 least significant bits of the memory address to access in the next byte, as clarified here:
So, for example, if you want to access memory address 1365, 10101010101 in binary, the slave address byte would be 1010101X and the address byte would be 01010101. (Where X is the read/write bit).
