Summary

  The `brand' tool is used to write board UIDs into EEPROMs and to
  prepare EEPROMs to be NVRAM or SBCD information stores. It is
  typically used during the manufacture of a board to prepare the
  primary EEPROM with the board's unique ID assigned by Simtec
  Electronics.

Usage

 > brand (eeprom) [command] [command-specific-arguments]

Example

To display the contents of the primary EEPROM
 > brand (24cxx0)

To set the primary EEPROM to be an NVRAM store and to carry the given UID
 > brand (24cxx0) set 44 33 22 11

To configure the secondary EEPROM to be an SBCD information source
 > brand (24cxx1) set-sbcd

Commands

 set        -- Sets the UID flag and the UID bytes should follow
 set-sbcd   -- Enables SBCD information storage (disables NVRAM store)
 unset      -- Removes UID marker.
 unset-sbcd -- Removes the SBCD information source tag.
