Communication with 1-Wire® devices is unique in that only one wire, in addition to the ground, is needed to communicate with another device. Power supply and communications are handled through only one connection. To communicate with a Maxim’s 1-Wire device, only one general purpose I/O pin is needed. This application note shows how a 1-Wire target device, DS2433, can be emulated using an ATtiny817.
