1-Wire Signaling
The MAX31820PAR uses a strict 1-Wire communication
protocoltoensuredataintegrity.Severalsignaltypesare
definedbythisprotocol:resetpulse,presencepulse,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
busisreleased,the5kΩpullupresistorpullsthe1-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.
