[Owfs-developers] DS2760 hardware problems

2008-10-01 Thread katana
As usual, I apologize in advance for posting hardware issues on the software/drivers mailing list, but I'm out of ideas. I have a DS2760 and I'm trying to use the I/O pin to drive a load. I have a 1k pullup resistor to +5V, to pull the I/O pin high, and the node attaches to the gate of a pmos fet

[Owfs-developers] Hardware question: DS2438

2007-10-17 Thread katana
I'm sorry to keep asking hardware questions on the owfs-software-dev list, but I don't know where else to ask these things. Why do all (that I've found) light-measuring circuits based on the DS2438 use reverse-biased photodiodes, rather than, say, a photoresistor? Either way you could have a fixe

[Owfs-developers] DS2760 question

2007-08-18 Thread katana
So far, I've had a lot of success using 1wire stuff: I have a 2408 running some relays, am doing a bunch of stuff with temp sensors, and now I'm trying to get a 2760 to detect temps in a furnace. The thing is: when I ask for temperatures on the thermocouple I get reasonable answers, but when I que

I've done some searching on google and within this newsgroup itself to try and answer this question but haven't yet found anything so I figured I'd ask in the hopes it's an easy answer. I'm using a DS18S20 and a parallel-port-driven relay to model a furnace control system: the DS is taped to a lig
