There is no support for it on any processors peripheral side. And pjrc's bitbanging library is just that. Given that the sensors themselves take an enormous amount of time to actually get the data and that a single sensor going bad usually takes down the buss I prefer using the DS2482-800 as described below. </p> <p><a href="http://www.dorkbotpdx.org/blog/wardcunningham/diagnosis_in_a_complex_world#comment-698" rel="nofollow">http://www.dorkbotpdx.org/blog/wardcunningham/diagnosis_in_a_complex_world#comment-698</a> </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=2252#post-26418 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 11:02:21 +0000 gbulmer 26418@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>steve918 - Do you have access to an Arduino and/or storage oscilloscope or logic probe?<br /> I think it will be quite difficult to debug without a working 'reference' platform (Arduino) or the ability to look at the signal.</p> <p><em>"search() doesn't seem to turn up anything"</em><br /> Are you saying the signal on the wire doesn't change, or <code>read_bit()</code> always returns the same value, or something else?</p> <p>(Full disclosure: I am not a member of LeafLabs staff.) </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=2252#post-26411 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 01:36:05 +0000 steve918 26411@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>I realize this post is a bit old, but I'm still having a bit of trouble after scouring the web for the same problem and there doesn't seem to be a concrete solution.</p> <p>I took the suggested changes from this thread along with some checking for #defines in the header.

For my first pass, I think I will replace the macro call with the direct function call. This way I will have access to the pin.

Arduinos or clones have 5 volt I/O. Maple boards, including the Maple mini have only a limited number of 5 volt tolerant inputs and no 5 volt outputs, unless you add level shifting circuitry. I suggest you take a carefful look at the Maple Mini's pin map and probably budget some space for one or more level shifting chips, especially if you want to interface to your existing circuitry. </p> <p>That said, I'm using a Maple Mini for a project and will probably order a couple more in the near future. Maples run rings around Arduinos; I like them.</p> <p>Hope this helps. </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=2252#post-12067 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 15:44:47 +0000 gbulmer 12067@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>raymadigan - given you're a software engineer, you could likely do a 1-Wire port by implementing the 7 macros using digitalRead/digitalWrite and switching off interrupts (disable USB, and AFAIK everything will be alright). </p> <p>I say this partly because you have Arduinos, and so could validate the software using one of them as a dummy 1-wire device, or "1-wire network sniffer". </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=2252#post-12036 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 23:37:41 +0000 raymadigan 12036@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>Sorry it took me so long to respond. I have read the entries above and think that the ds2482 is my best option. I guess I need to post this warning, in case I ask some simple question as I try to get it to work.

It is nicely isolated in some macros, but it relies on those macros being implemented.</p> <p>Reading Wikipedia, 1-wire is so slow that you might get this library working using ordinary digitalWrite/digitalRead to implement the macros. This might be fast enough. I imagine the application doesn't spend a lot of its time reading data from 1-wire sensors. </p> <p>Also, when talking 1-wire, it barely matters how quick the digital I/O is (on a Maple) because the 1-wire protocol is so slow that the MCU is stuck waiting for the data exchange.</p> <p>Wikipedia says a USART and some external components is enough to talk (in hardware) to 1-wire<br /> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Wire" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Wire</a></p> <p>Anyway, I think I'd start with something like (COMPLETELY UNTESTED):<br /> <pre><code>#define PIN_TO_BASEREG(pin) ((IO_REG_TYPE*)(pin)) #define PIN_TO_BITMASK(pin) ((IO_REG_TYPE)(pin))</code></pre> <p>Then implement the macros using <code>base</code> as the pin number or mask as the pin number.</p> <p>If you needed to get 1-Wire software library working faster (which I don't think is important because the protocol speed dominates), you'd have to dig into the Maple library and the STM32F103 hardware. That would be more challenging. </p> <p>Two macros <code>PIN_TO_BASEREG</code> andf <code>PIN_TO_BITMASK</code> use portInputRegister and digitalPinToBitMask which are not available on Maple, so you'd have to dig into the maple infrastructure, and look at PIN_MAP to implement them.</p> <p>The other macros <code>DIRECT_READ</code> <code>DIRECT_MODE_INPUT</code>, <code>DIRECT_MODE_OUTPUT</code>, <code>DIRECT_WRITE_LOW</code>, <code>DIRECT_WRITE_HIGH</code> use the underlying hardware representation of the digital ports. This is documented in the STM32F103 hardware manual (RM0008).</p> <p>The code also switches interrupts on and off, which would be mapped onto the Maples NVIC controller.</p> <p>How much C and microcontroller stuff have you done?<br /> Have you got access to an oscilloscope? If not, implement the 7 macros using digitalRead/digitalWrite and call it a day.</p> <p>(Edit: or you might use something like a DS2482 to interface to 1-wire from I2C) </p> http://forums.leaflabs.com/topic.php?id=2252#post-11940 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 12:37:54 +0000 gbulmer 11940@http://forums.leaflabs.com/ <p>raymadigan</p> <p>There are recent threads discussing the sdfat library.<br /> I haven't seen the Dallas onewire protocol mentioned for a while, but, IIRC, it is feasible to port it (but it's about a year since I used it)</p> <p>The softserial library would be more of a challenge.<br /> How many serials do you need?
