7、Single-bus communication(ONE-WIRE)
7.1 Typical circuits for single bus
Microprocessor and AM2301 connection typical application circuit is shown in Figure 4. Single bus
communication mode, pull the SDA microprocessor I / O port is connected.
Special instructions of the single-bus communication:
1.Typical application circuit recommended in the short cable length of 30 meters on the 5.1K
pull-up resistor pullup resistor according to the actual situation of lower than 30 m.
2.With 3.3V supply voltage, cable length shall not be greater than 100cm. Otherwise, the line
voltage drop will lead to the sensor power supply, resulting in measurement error.
3.Read the sensor minimum time interval for the 2S; read interval is less than 2S, may cause the
real-time data that need continuous read twice, we recommend repeatedly to read sensors, and each read
sensor interval is greater than 2 seconds to obtain accuratethe data.
temperature and humidity are not allowed or communication is unsuccessful, etc..
4.Temperature and humidity values are each read out the results of the last measurement For
