Hello! Paul despite the fact that the company Maxim considers the DS2890 technically obsolete and not ready for new designs, which also assumes probably wrongly they are still being made, is OWFS still supporting this part number?
Strangely enough the machine that's now running Linux there aren't any actual serial ports, just a grouping of USB ports, and since I've used the DS9097 adapters via a USB to RS232 adapter who swings properly, on Windows as it happens. Its just that I've not tried to use the programs that way yet on Linux. And in case anyone is interested, on page 11 bottom half of the data sheet for the LM334 constant current source once made by National Semiconductor now made by Texas Instruments, there is an example of a circuit who uses the part plus two resistors, one fixed and one that is a variable resistor for trimming. As for how the One-Wire part would be used there, in place of the regular variable resistor, I'm not sure. ----- Gregg C Levine [email protected] "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
