The DS2482-100 is an IC to 1-Wire bridge device that interfaces directly to standard (100kHz max) or fast (400kHz max) IC masters to perform bidirectional protocol conversion between the IC master and any downstream 1-Wire slave devices. Relative to any attached 1-Wire slave device, the DS2482-100 is a 1-Wire master. Internal factory trimmed timers relieve the system host processor from generating time-critical 1-Wire waveforms, supporting both standard and Overdrive 1-Wire communication speeds. To optimize 1-Wire waveform generation, the DS2482-100 performs slew rate control on rising and falling 1-Wire edges and provides additional programmable features to match drive characteristics to the 1-Wire slave environment. Programmable strong pullup features support 1-Wire power delivery to 1-Wire devices such as EEPROMs and sensors. The DS2482-100 combines these features with an output to control an external MOSFET for enhanced strong pullup application. The IC slave address assignment is controlled by two binary address inputs, resolving potential conflicts with other IC slave devices in the system.
