link to page 19 DS18B20Programmable Resolution1-Wire Digital ThermometerGeneral DescriptionBenefits and Features The DS18B20 digital thermometer provides 9-bit to 12-bit ● Unique 1-Wire® Interface Requires Only One Port Celsius temperature measurements and has an alarm Pin for Communication function with nonvolatile user-programmable upper and ● Reduce Component Count with Integrated lower trigger points. The DS18B20 communicates over a Temperature Sensor and EEPROM 1-Wire bus that by definition requires only one data line • Measures Temperatures from -55°C to +125°C (and ground) for communication with a central micro- (-67°F to +257°F) processor. In addition, the DS18B20 can derive power • ±0.5°C Accuracy from -10°C to +85°C directly from the data line (“parasite power”), eliminating • Programmable Resolution from 9 Bits to 12 Bits the need for an external power supply. • No External Components Required Each DS18B20 has a unique 64-bit serial code, which ● Parasitic Power Mode Requires Only 2 Pins for allows multiple DS18B20s to function on the same 1-Wire Operation (DQ and GND) bus. Thus, it is simple to use one microprocessor to control many DS18B20s distributed over a large area. ● Simplifies Distributed Temperature-Sensing Applications that can benefit from this feature include Applications with Multidrop Capability HVAC environmental controls, temperature monitoring • Each Device Has a Unique 64-Bit Serial Code systems inside buildings, equipment, or machinery, and Stored in On-Board ROM process monitoring and control systems. ● Flexible User-Definable Nonvolatile (NV) Alarm Settings with Alarm Search Command Identifies Devices with Applications Temperatures Outside Programmed Limits ● Thermostatic Controls ● Available in 8-Pin SO (150 mils), 8-Pin µSOP, and ● Industrial Systems 3-Pin TO-92 Packages ● Consumer Products ● Thermometers Pin Configurations ● Thermally Sensitive Systems TOP VIEW + N.C. 1 8 N.C.
