EEPROM Data Storage Module For Arduino

Introduction

If you want more storage for your Arduino project, this module is designed for you. This EEPROM data storage module supplies an extra 32k byte for your project. Simply wired them via I2C. Supplied with Interface cable which can be fawlessly integrated with interface shield.
