Minimal Remote 1-Wire® Master Protocol

Abstract: Maxim 1-Wire devices are used in remote places where the distance between the device and the Host may exceed the 1-Wire specifications. This Application Note describes a simple protocol that can be used between the Host and a remote controller that performs the 1-Wire communication.

Introduction
Maxim 1-Wire devices are used in remote places where the distance between the device and the Host may exceed the 1-Wire
specifications.

In such cases it is useful to be able to have some kind of communication equipment in betwee
