Post by thread:[PIC]: Searching the Dallas 1-wire bus

Has anyone ever done a search rom using a 16f84 (or anything remotely close) on a Dallas 1-wire bus? I have spent several hours now searching the internet, piclist archives, etc... looking for sample code that searches the 1-wire bus. I found lots of examples using the "skip rom" command. This is fine for one device, but I wish to have multiple temperature sensors on a single bus(as well as other 1-wire compatible "black boxes"). I am not opposed to writing the code myself, but surely someone has done this before in something other than forth. ;-) Although, from the looks of the datasheet, debugging the "search rom" command will be a real joy.<sigh> Pretty nice of the folks at Dallas semiconductor, giving away those free samples and all. (you get 8 part numbers, two samples of each part number, woo-hoo!) A veritable bonanza <grin> http://dbserv.maxim-ic.com/sl_requests2.cfm Michael Brown Instant Net Solutions http://www.KillerPCs.net -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
