Interfacing PIC16F877A with 24C08A EEPROM

The EEPROM is used in most of the electronic equipments like televisions, computers, digital
clocks ....It is used to store data.
The 24C eeprom series is one of the mostly used today, this type of memory uses the I2C
protocol to communicate with the master device.
The 24C08A eeprom has 8 Kbit of memory (1KByte) its pin assignment as shown below:

For example in general when A0, A1, A2 connected to ground the device address becomes:
(for 24C08A A0 & A1 can be disconnected).
Write data to EEPROM:
Start I2C protocol,
Send EEPROM write mode address,
Send byte address,
Send data,
Stop the I2C protocol.
The 24C08A has 1024 bytes of memory organized as 4 blocks of 256 bytes.
Assume A2 connected to ground, the addressing of our eeprom bcomes as shown on the
following table:

P1 and P0 are called the page address which used to to select one of the four pages of 24C08A
EEPROM.
So, the complete process of writing byte is shown below:

(0xA0 means that we are at page0)

void write_data(char
I2C1_Start();
I2C1_Wr(0xA0);
I2C1_Wr(address);
I2C1_Wr(data_);
I2C1_Stop();
}

address, char data_){

// start I2C signal
// Send EEPROM and page address
// Send byte address
// Write data
// Stop I2C protocol

Read data from EEPROM:

Start I2C protocol,
Send EEPROM write mode address,
Send byte address,
I2C repeated start,
Send EEPROM read mode address,
Read data from EEPROM,
Stop the I2C protocol.

MikroC PRO For PIC code:

void read_data(char address){
I2C1_Start();
// start I2C signal
I2C1_Wr(0xA0);
// Send EEPROM and page address at write mode
I2C1_Wr(address);
// Send byte address
I2C1_Repeated_Start();
I2C1_Wr(0xA1);
// Send EEPROM and page address at read mode
a = I2C1_Rd(0);
I2C1_Stop();
// Stop I2C protocol
}
Example:

Circuit schematic:

On this application I am going to write 4 different values at different addresses then read these
values and display it on 1602 LCD display.
The values are: (decimal)
7 at address 10, 141 at address 320, 255 at address 680 and 224 at address 1010.
The LCD displays as shown on the previous picture.
MiKroC code:
// LCD module connections
sbit LCD_RS at RB0_bit;
sbit LCD_EN at RB1_bit;
sbit LCD_D4 at RB2_bit;
sbit LCD_D5 at RB3_bit;
sbit LCD_D6 at RB4_bit;
sbit LCD_D7 at RB5_bit;
sbit LCD_RS_Direction at TRISB0_bit;
sbit LCD_EN_Direction at TRISB1_bit;
sbit LCD_D4_Direction at TRISB2_bit;
sbit LCD_D5_Direction at TRISB3_bit;
sbit LCD_D6_Direction at TRISB4_bit;
sbit LCD_D7_Direction at TRISB5_bit;
// End LCD module connections
char a ;
