Hello!
It's possible, Jeff, Paul, and Roberto, that when Maxim was planning
the DS1825 and its related family of parts, other thermal sensors like
it, they included expansion areas in the registers for the way the
MAX31826 works. Which suggests that the MAX31826 is a superset of the
DS1825 and even the others that the DS1825 is from.

Further tests are necessary.
