I want to measure the voltage of a 12 volt battery system: two 6 volt golf
cart batteries charged by micro hydro and solar. Remote, unattended. I have
an a2d card with serial interface that used to give me the voltage but it
stopped working. I would like to replace it with a 1wire solution.
I have looked at the DS2438 but as it is a chip I guess I need a breadboard
and at least 1wire and DC connectors, plus the voltage divider.
I was hoping to find a kit or pre-built solution but maybe I could do it
from parts.
Thanks for your reply.
