DS18S20-C01+ datasheet by Maxim Integrated Products

DS18S20-C01+ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the accuracy of the DS18S20-C01+ over the entire operating temperature range?
  The DS18S20-C01+ has an accuracy of ±0.5°C from -10°C to +85°C, and ±1°C from -40°C to -10°C and +85°C to +125°C.
• How do I connect multiple DS18S20-C01+ sensors to a single bus?
  You can connect multiple DS18S20-C01+ sensors to a single bus by connecting the DQ pins of each sensor to the same bus line, and ensuring each sensor has a unique ROM code.
• What is the maximum cable length for the DS18S20-C01+?
  The maximum cable length for the DS18S20-C01+ is 100 meters, but this can be extended using repeaters or other signal conditioning techniques.
• How do I handle errors and faults in the DS18S20-C01+?
  The DS18S20-C01+ has built-in error detection and correction mechanisms, including CRC checks and fault detection. You can also implement your own error handling routines in your application code.
• Can I use the DS18S20-C01+ in a parasitic power mode?
  Yes, the DS18S20-C01+ can be used in a parasitic power mode, where the sensor is powered from the data line, eliminating the need for a separate power supply.
