CRC is available in Application Note 27, Understanding and Using Cyclic Redundancy Checks with

Dallas Semiconductor Touch Memory Products. (This application note can be found on the Maxim/Dallas

Semiconductor website at www.maxim-ic.com.)

In the circuit in Figure 8, the shift register bits are initialized to 0. Then, starting with the least significant

bit of the family code, one bit at a time is shifted in. After the 8th bit of the family code has been entered,

then the serial number is entered. After the 48th bit of the serial number has been entered, the shift

register contains the CRC value.

HARDWARE CONFIGURATION

Because the 1-Wire bus has only a single line, it is important that each device on the bus be able to drive

it at the appropriate time. To facilitate this, each device attached to the 1-Wire bus must connect to the

bus with open-drain or tri-state output drivers. The DS2740 uses an open-drain output driver as part of the

bidirectional interface circuitry shown in Figure 9. If a bidirectional pin is not available on the bus master,

separate output and input pins can be connected together.

The 1-Wire bus must have a pullup resistor at the bus-master end of the bus. For short line lengths, the

value of this resistor should be approximately 5k

W. The idle state for the 1-Wire bus is high. If, for any

reason, a bus transaction must be suspended, the bus must be left in the idle state to properly resume the

the bus begin to interpret the low period as a reset pulse, effectively terminating the transaction.

The DS2740 can operate in two communication speed modes, standard and overdrive. The speed mode is

determined by the input logic level of the OVD pin with a logic 0 selecting standard speed and a logic 1

selecting overdrive speed. The OVD pin must be at a stable logic level of 0 or 1 before initializing a

transaction with a reset pulse. All 1-Wire devices on a multinode bus must operate at the same

communication speed for proper operation. 1-Wire timing for both standard and overdrive speeds are

listed in the Electrical Characteristics: 1-Wire Interface tables.
