Thanks for the replies guys.

I currently use separate power supplies for 1-wire and Pi.  Is it considered better to split them?

Colin, can you give me details of you power management board please?

Matthias, I have just looked through the Meanwell site but cannot see any that are adjustable (may have missed it there are a lot there), can you tell me which one you used please?

Thanks for your help

Mick

So many problems come from there. I use a power management board with boost 
converter and lipo for this reason. Deals with outages as well with graceful 
shutdown.

Any suggestions on how I can find out what is causing this.
When I had this problem, the root cause was a flaky power supply.

Get a cap-rail-mounted adjustable 5V power supply (e.g. from Meanwell).
Connect the Pi, then carefully adjust the voltage up to 5.15V. That's
still well within spec (+5% tolerance means 5.25V) but helps a lot when
you have transient problems.

The affected Pi didn't have any more hiccups after I did that.

Also, add a 0.1µF ceramic cap between 5V and ground of the 1wire lines,
close to the Pi, to buffer spikes from out there.
