1024-Bit, 1-Wire EEPROM
DS2431
6 Maxim Integrated
The hierarchical structure of the 1-Wire protocol is
shown in Figure 2. The bus master must first provide
one of the seven ROM function commands: Read ROM,
Match ROM, Search ROM, Skip ROM, Resume,
Overdrive-Skip ROM, or Overdrive-Match ROM. Upon
completion of an Overdrive-Skip ROM or Overdrive-
Match ROM command byte executed at standard
speed, the device enters overdrive mode where all
subsequent communication occurs at a higher speed.
The protocol required for these ROM function com-
mands is described in Figure 9. After a ROM function
command is successfully executed, the memory func-
tions become accessible and the master can provide
any one of the four memory function commands. The
protocol for these memory function commands is
described in Figure 7. All data is read and written
least significant bit first.
64-Bit Lasered ROM
Each DS2431 contains a unique ROM code that is 64
bits long. The first 8 bits are a 1-Wire family code. The
next 48 bits are a unique serial number. The last 8 bits
are a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the first 56 bits.
See Figure 3 for details. The 1-Wire CRC is generated
using a polynomial generator consisting of a shift regis-
ter and XOR gates as shown in Figure 4. The polynomial
is X

1-Wire CRC is available in Application Note 27:

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, the serial number is entered. After
the last bit of the serial number has been entered, the
shift register contains the CRC value. Shifting in the 8
bits of the CRC returns the shift register to all 0s.
