1-Wire Signaling
The MAX31820PAR uses a strict 1-Wire communication
protocoltoensuredataintegrity.Severalsignaltypesare
definedbythisprotocol:resetpulse,presencepulse,write
0, write 1, read 0, and read 1. The bus master initiates all
these signals, with the exception of the presence pulse.
Initialization Procedure: Reset and Presence
Pulses
All communication with the device begins with an initial-
ization sequence that consists of a reset pulse from the
master followed by a presence pulse from the device,
as illustrated in Figure 8. When the device sends the
presence pulse in response to the reset, it is indicating to
the master that it is on the bus and ready to operate.
During the initialization sequence, the bus master
transmits (T
X
) the reset pulse by pulling the 1-Wire bus
low for a minimum of 480µs. The bus master then releas-
es the bus and goes into receive mode (R
X
). When the
busisreleased,the5kΩpullupresistorpullsthe1-Wire
bus high. When the device detects this rising edge, it
waits 15µs to 60µs and then transmits a presence pulse
by pulling the 1-Wire bus low for 60µs to 240µs.
