4.2.2 Current Monitoring (X3)
X3 enables current monitoring using an external multimeter.
Connect multimeter between X3-1 and X3-2 to measure the current used by the AT86RF233.
Warning
When not monitoring current the strap need to be inserted in order to provide power to the board.

2 - V_TRX 3.3V pin on the AT86RF233.
4.3 U2 Serial EEPROM
The REB233 contains a serial EEPROM, AT24MAC602, with factory programmed MAC addresses available
via the I2C interface of J100.
The memory organisation is as documented in “Persistence Memory” on page 13 . The structure is located
from EEPROM address 0x00, device address ‘1010’
