Nice setup Nico!
And a useful watchdog for the DS2408, thanks for sharing the schematics!
I'm still struggling with my implementation, resetting the microcontroller
will get the DS2480 out of sync somehow, and the only way to get back on
track is to powercycle the beast.
I have tried to send a master control reset to the DS2480, but it doesn't
seem to work, the chip is notoriously hard to reset.

So I threw the circuit away and have ordered a new PCB based upon the
DS2484(I2C), hopefully it works better than the serial DS2480, at least it
requires less external components and a reset is only a I2C-instruction
away. :-)
Crossing my fingers that this one works better...
