FlameIT - 1-Wire Expander (OWEX) module documentation

FlameIT - Immersion Cooling 1-Wire Expander module.

Features

Allows Easy Interface Between an I2C Micro Port and a 1-Wire Slave
Integrates with OWFS (One Wire File System) without any problems. Sesnors are then visible on system as files.
I2C Host Interface Supports 100kHz and 400kHz I2C Communication Speeds
8 Channels of Independently Operated 1-Wire I/O.
Each 1-Wire Channel is ESD protected: DS9503
1-Wire Master I/O with Selectable Active or Passive 1-Wire Pullup
Provides Reset/Presence, 8-Bit, Single-Bit, and 3-Bit 1-Wire I/O Sequences
Standard and Overdrive 1-Wire Communication Speeds 2
Three Address Inputs for I2C Address Assignment [AD0, AD1, AD3 goldpins]
Minimizes Line Noise, Reducing System EMI
Slew-Controlled 1-Wire Edges
Supports EEPROMs, Temp Sensors, or Other 1-Wire Slaves That Have Momentary High Source Current Modes
- Strong 1-Wire Pullup Provided by an Internal Low-Impedance Signal Path
- PCTLZ Output to Optionally Control an External MOSFET for Stronger Pullup Requirements
Wide Operating Range: 2.9V to 5.5V, -40°C to +85°C
RoHS Compliant

The DS2482-800 is an I²C to 1-Wire® bridge device that interfaces directly to standard (100kHz max) or fast (400kHz max) I²C masters to perform bi-directional protocol conversion between the I²C master and any downstream 1-Wire slave devices. Relative to any attached 1-Wire slave device, the DS2482-800 is a 1-Wire master. Internal factory-trimmed timers relieve the system host processor from generating time-critical 1-Wire waveforms, supporting both standard and Overdrive 1-Wire communication speeds. To optimize 1-Wire waveform generation, the DS2482-800 performs slew-rate control on rising and falling 1-Wire edges and has a programmable feature to mask the fast presence pulse edge that some 1-Wire slave devices can generate. Programmable strong pullup features support 1-Wire power delivery to 1-Wire devices such as EEPROMs and sensors. The DS2482-800 combines these features with eight independent 1-Wire I/O channels. The I²C slave address assignment is controlled by three binary address inputs, resolving potential conflicts with other I²C slave devices in the system.

RaspberryPi Installation

Everything is done by install.sh file dirrectory in this repository.

I2C && OWFS on RaspberryPi

OWFS is responsible for all I2C communication with our module. All 1-Wire sensors connected to module are than visible as files in filesystem.

https://owfs.org

Minimall steps to install OWFS

Here is how to read the current state of the I2C port:

sudo raspi-config nonint get_i2c

This command will return:

1 if the port is disabled
0 if the port is enabled

# Enable I2C on RaspberryPi
sudo raspi-config nonint do_i2c 0

# Install OWFS
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install owfs

owfs.conf
