Patrik,
You are correct.
All the MultiSensor devices are DS2438-based circuits from iButtonLink.
Other vendors use the DS2438 (it is inexpensive, robust, and measures
temperature, voltage*2, current and has memory and timer). HobbyBoards makes
a moisture sensor, and several vendors make humidity sensors with the
DS2438, for instance.
iButtonLink puts some ID information in memory to distinguish it's
MultiSensor devices. As far as I know, no other vendor follows that
convention.
