The maximum number of devices that can be connected to a single 1-Wire bus is 256, as each device has a unique 64-bit ROM code.
The DS2433S has a built-in power-on reset circuit that ensures the device is in a known state after power-up. The device resets its internal state machine and clears its memory on power-up.
The VPP (Programming Voltage) pin is used to program the device's EPROM memory. It is not required for normal operation and can be left unconnected if programming is not required.
Yes, the DS2433S can be used in a multi-drop configuration, where multiple devices are connected to the same 1-Wire bus. Each device can be addressed individually using its unique ROM code.
The DS2433S uses a collision detection mechanism to handle conflicts on the 1-Wire bus. If a conflict is detected, the device will retry the transmission after a random delay.
