(Figure 11) should be applied for 480 s, after which the bus master returns the data line to an idle high 
state controlled by the pullup resistor. Note that due to the high voltage programming requirements for 
any 1-Wire EPROM device, it is not possible to multidrop non-EPROM based 1-Wire devices with the 
DS1985 during programming. An internal diode within the non-EPROM based 1-Wire devices will 
attempt to clamp the data line at approximately 8 volts and could potentially damage these devices.
