This is the datasheet:
https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/24AA02E48-24AA025E48-24AA02E64-24AA025E64-Data-Sheet-20002124H.pdf

Yes, the MAC is hard-coded at 250. But using "24c02" compatible will
involve the offset adjustment in the driver (let me know if I missed
something).

Thank you,
