Hello! Paul that maybe true, but the original, read designed by Phillips version of the I2C bus actually allows for multiple devices, each gets a unique address, and the address byte is part of the communications protocol.
In fact that's how the SMB bus manages to figure out what things the system needs to worry about, and promptly does that. In that case the addresses are assigned at creation time for the things, and off it goes. Ideally unless absolutely necessary your DS2482-800 device should be a single one, with multiple One-Wire parts attached, obviously without knowing more, we can't help you. And this presupposes he's reading the archives, and will be joining the list RSN. -- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The Force will be with you always."
