Brian,

Is there any chance that FRam can be implemented on uControllers or
even that uControllers can be implemented using FRam?

I use I2C FRAM now in place of EEProm as it seems to me to be everything
that EEProm should have been from the start:

 - zero write time,
 - infinite write cycles,
 - indefinate data storage time...

(for all practical purposes of course).


Regards,



Mike
