Datasheet
MAX31850/MAX31851
Cold-Junction Compensated, 1-Wire
Thermocouple-to-Digital Converters
22Maxim Integrated
Operation Example
Table 6 shows an operation example in which there are
multiple devices on the bus using parasite power. The
bus master initiates a temperature conversion in a spe-
cific MAX31850/MAX31851 and then reads Scratchpad
and recalculates the CRC to verify the data.

).
Tx Reset Master issues reset pulse.
Rx Presence Devices respond with presence pulse.
Tx 55h Master issues Match ROM command.
Tx 64-bit ROM code Master sends device ROM code.
Tx BEh Master issues Read Scratchpad command.
Rx 9 data bytes
Master reads entire scratchpad including CRC. The master then recalculates the CRC of the
first 8 data bytes from the scratchpad and compares the calculated CRC with the read CRC
(byte 9). If they match, the master continues; if not, the read operation is repeated.
