Data Logging

Ah... every byte. That makes a lot more sense, now I come to think about it!

Interfacing a serial EEPROM to a PIC should be quite simple. I still need to find an easy way of getting the data out of the eeprom and onto a PC, which is why the CF idea seemed nice. But probably far more complicated...

Ben,

have you had a look at This Thread ?

Thanks - I found that a few minutes ago - it seems very thorough!

Cheers,

Yeah. An EEPROm would certainly store the data - but accessing it on a PC once it has been recored seems slightly more involved. An advantage of using something like a formatted flash card is it is possible to just plug it in and read what's there.

The disadvantage seems to be the added complexity of circuitry and programming to achieve this...
