The DS1923 temperature/humidity logger iButton is a
♦ 512 Bytes of General-Purpose Memory Plus 64
rugged, self-sufficient system that measures temperature
and/or humidity and records the result in a protected
memory section. The recording is done at a user-defined
rate. A total of 8192 8-bit readings or 4096 16-bit readings,
taken at equidistant intervals ranging from 1s to 273hr, can
be stored. Additionally, 512 bytes of SRAM store applica-
tion-specific information and 64 bytes store calibration
data. A mission to collect data can be programmed to
begin immediately, after a user-defined delay, or after a
temperature alarm. Access to the memory and control
functions can be password protected. The DS1923 is con-
figured and communicates with a host-computing device

Note 1: System requirement.
Note 2: Maximum allowable pullup resistance is a function of the number of 1-Wire devices in the system and 1-Wire recovery
times. The specified value here applies to systems with only one device and with the minimum 1-Wire recovery times. For
more heavily loaded systems, an active pullup such as that in the DS2480B may be required.
Note 3: Capacitance on the data pin could be 800pF when V
is first applied. If a 2.2kΩ resistor is used to pull up the data line,
PUP
2.5μs after V
has been applied, the parasite capacitance does not affect normal communications.
PUP
Note 4:
Note 5: Voltage below which, during a falling edge on IO, a logic 0 is detected.
Note 6: The voltage on IO must be less than or equal to V whenever the master drives the line low.
V and V are a function of the internal supply voltage.
TL TH

Note 15: To conserve battery power, use 8-bit temperature logging whenever possible.
Note 16: This number was derived from a test conducted by Cemagref in Antony, France, in July 2000:
www.cemagref.fr/English/index.htm Test Report No. E42.
Note 17: For software-corrected accuracy, assume correction using calibration coefficients with calibration equations for error
compensation.
Note 18: Software correction for humidity and temperature is handled automatically using the 1-Wire Viewer Software package
available at: http://www.ibutton.com.
Note 19: Warning: Not for use as the sole method of measuring or tracking temperature and/or humidity in products and articles
that could affect the health or safety of persons, plants, animals, or other living organisms, including but not limited to
foods, beverages, pharmaceuticals, medications, blood and blood products, organs, and flammable and combustible
products. User shall assure that redundant (or other primary) methods of testing and determining the handling methods,
quality, and fitness of the articles and products should be implemented. Temperature and/or humidity tracking with this
product, where the health or safety of the aforementioned persons or things could be adversely affected, is only recom-
mended when supplemental or redundant information sources are used. Data-logger products are 100% tested and cali-
brated at time of manufacture by Maxim to ensure that they meet all data sheet parameters, including temperature
accuracy. User shall be responsible for proper use and storage of this product. As with any sensor-based product, user
shall also be responsible for occasionally rechecking the accuracy of the product to ensure it is still operating properly.
Note 20: All humidity specifications are determined at +25°C except where specifically indicated.
Note 21: Response time is determined by measuring the 1/e point as the device transitions from 40%RH to 90%RH or 90%RH to
40%RH, whichever is slower. Test was performed at 5L/min airflow.
Note 22: All DS1923 humidity measurements are 12-bit readings. Missioning determines 8-bit or 16-bit data logging. Battery life-
time is the same no matter what RH resolution is logged.
Note 23: Reliability studies have shown that the device survives a minimum of 1000 cycles of condensation and drying, but this
product is not guaranteed for extended use in condensing environments.

Note 24: Software-corrected accuracy is accomplished using the method detailed in the Software Correction Algorithm for
Temperature section.
Note 25: Every DS1923 device is measured and calibrated in a controlled, NIST-traceable RH environment.
Note 26: Higher accuracy versions may be available. Contact the factory for details.
Note 27: If this device is exposed to a high humidity environment (> 70%RH), and then exposed to a lower RH environment, the
device reads high for a period of time. The device typically reads within +0.5%RH at 20%RH, 30 minutes after being
exposed to continuous 80%RH for 30 minutes.
Note 28: All capacitive RH sensors can change their reading depending upon how long they have spent at high (> 70%RH) or low
RH (< 20%RH). This effect is called saturation drift and can be compensated through software, as described in the
Software Saturation Drift Compensation section.
Note 29: Individual RH readings always include a noise component (repeatability). To minimize measurement error, average as
many samples as is reasonable.
Note 30: Like all relative humidity sensors, when exposed to contaminants and/or conditions toward the limits of the safe operating
range, accuracy degradation can result (see the Safe Operating Range graph). For maximum long-term stability, the sen-
sor should not be exposed or subjected to organic solvents, corrosive agents (e.g., strong acids, SO , H SO , CI , HCL,
2
2

2
H S) and strong bases (i.e., compounds with a pH greater than 7). Dust settling on the filter surface does not affect the
2
sensor performance except to possibly decrease the speed of response. For more information on the RH sensor’s toler-
ance to chemicals visit: http://content.honeywell.com/sensing/prodinfo/humiditymoisture/technical/c15_144.pdf.

Figure 2 shows the hierarchical structure of the 1-Wire

Detailed Description
The DS1923 is an ideal device to monitor for extended
eight ROM function commands: Read ROM, Match
ROM, Search ROM, Conditional Search ROM, Skip
ROM, Overdrive-Skip ROM, Overdrive-Match ROM, or
Resume. Upon completion of an Overdrive-ROM com-
mand executed at standard speed, the device enters
overdrive mode, where all subsequent communication
occurs at a higher speed. The protocol required for
these ROM function commands is described in Figure
11. After a ROM function command is successfully exe-
cuted, the memory and control functions become
accessible and the master can provide any one of the
eight available commands. The protocol for these mem-
ory and control function commands is described in
Figure 9. All data is read and written least significant
bit first.
periods of time the temperature and humidity of any
object it is attached to or shipped with, such as fresh
produce, medical drugs and supplies, and for use in
refrigerators and freezers, as well as for logging climat-
ic data during the transport of sensitive objects and
critical processes such as curing. A 1.27mm diameter
hole in the lid of the device allows for air to reach the
humidity sensor. The rest of the electronics inside the
DS1923 is sealed so that it is not exposed to ambient
humidity. Note that the initial sealing level of the
DS1923 achieves the equivalent of IP56. Aging and use
conditions can degrade the integrity of the seal over
time, so for applications with significant exposure to liq-
uids, sprays, or other similar environments, it is recom-
mended to place the Hygrochron™ under a shield to
protect it (refer to Application Note 4126: Understanding

protect the DS1923 from destruction in the event of full
submersion in liquid. Software for setup and data
retrieval through the 1-Wire interface is available for free

port of a PC and routines to access the general-purpose
memory for storing application-specific or equipment-
specific data files.
Parasite Power
The block diagram (Figure 1) shows the parasite-pow-
ered circuitry. This circuitry “steals” power whenever
the IO input is high. IO provides sufficient power as
long as the specified timing and voltage requirements
are met. The advantages of parasite power are two-
fold: 1) By parasiting off this input, battery power is
conserved, and 2) if the battery is exhausted for any
reason, the ROM can still be read.
64-Bit Lasered ROM
Each DS1923 contains a unique ROM code that is 64
bits long. The first 8 bits are a 1-Wire family code. The
next 48 bits are a unique serial number. The last 8 bits
are a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the first 56 bits
(see Figure 3 for details). The 1-Wire CRC is generated
using a polynomial generator consisting of a shift regis-
ter and XOR gates as shown in Figure 4. The polynomi-
Overview
The block diagram in Figure 1 shows the relationships
between the major control and memory sections of the
DS1923. The device has six main data components:
64-bit lasered ROM; 256-bit scratchpad; 512-byte gen-
eral-purpose SRAM; two 256-bit register pages of time-
keeping, control, status, and counter registers and
passwords; 64 bytes of calibration memory; and 8192
bytes of data-logging memory. Except for the ROM and
the scratchpad, all other memory is arranged in a sin-
gle linear address space. The data-logging memory,
counter registers, and several other registers are read
only for the user. Both register pages are write protect-
ed while the device is programmed for a mission. The
password registers, one for a read password and
another one for a read/write password, can only be writ-
ten, never read.

al is X + X + X + 1. Additional information about the
1-Wire CRC is available in Application Note 27:
Understanding and Using Cyclic Redundancy Checks
with Maxim iButton Products.
The shift register bits are initialized to 0. Then, starting
with the least significant bit of the family code, one bit
at a time is shifted in. After the 8th bit of the family code
has been entered, the serial number is entered. After
the last bit of the serial number has been entered, the
shift register contains the CRC value. Shifting in the 8
bits of CRC returns the shift register to all 0s.

Memory
Figure 5 shows the DS1923 memory map. Pages 0 to
15 contain 512 bytes of general-purpose SRAM. The
various registers to set up and control the device fill
pages 16 and 17, called register pages 1 and 2 (see
Figure 6 for details). Pages 18 and 19 can be used as
storage space for calibration data. The data-log log-
ging memory starts at address 1000h (page 128) and
extends over 256 pages. The memory pages 20 to 127
are reserved for future extensions. The scratchpad is
an additional page that acts as a buffer when writing to
the SRAM memory or the register pages. The calibra-
tion memory holds data from the device calibration that
can be used to further improve the accuracy of temper-
ature and humidity readings. See the Software
Correction Algorithm sections for details. The last byte
the preceding 31 bytes. Page 19 is an exact copy of
the data in page 18. While the user can overwrite the
calibration memory, this is not recommended. See the
Security by Password section for ways to protect the
memory. The access type for the register pages is reg-
ister-specific and depends on whether the device is
programmed for a mission. Figure 6 shows the details.
The data-log memory is read only for the user. It is writ-
ten solely under supervision of the on-chip control
logic. Due to the special behavior of the write access
logic (write scratchpad, copy scratchpad), it is recom-
mended to only write full pages at a time. This also
applies to the register pages. See the Address
Registers and Transfer Status section for details.

The DS1923’s RTC can run in either 12hr or 24hr mode.
Bit 6 of the Hours register (address 0202h) is defined
as the 12hr or 24hr mode select bit. When high, the
12hr mode is selected. In the 12hr mode, bit 5 is the
AM/PM bit with logic 1 being PM. In the 24hr mode, bit
5 is the 20hr bit (20hr to 23hr). The CENT bit, bit 7 of
the Months register, can be written by the user. This bit

ister at address 0212h. It is important that the user sets
the EHSS bit accordingly while setting the Sample Rate
register. Writing a sample rate of 0000h results in a
sample rate = 0001h, causing the DS1923 to log the
temperature either every minute or every second
depending upon the state of the EHSS bit.
The calendar logic is designed to automatically com-
pensate for leap years. For every year value that is
either 00 or a multiple of 4, the device adds a 29th of
February. This works correctly up to (but not including)
the year 2100.

Temperature Conversion
The DS1923’s temperature range begins at -20°C and
ends at +85°C. Temperature values are represented as
an 8-bit or 16-bit unsigned binary number with a resolu-
tion of 0.5°C in 8-bit mode and 0.0625°C in 16-bit
mode.
byte, the resolution or temperature increment is limited to
0.5°C. The TALM value must be converted into hexadec-
imal format before it can be written to one of the
Temperature Alarm Threshold registers (Low Alarm
address 0208h; High Alarm address 0209h).
Independent of the conversion mode (8-bit or 16-bit),
only the most significant byte of a temperature conver-
sion is used to determine whether an alarm is generated.
The higher temperature byte TRH is always valid. In
16-bit mode, only the three highest bits of the lower
byte TRL are valid. The five lower bits all read 0. TRL is
undefined if the device is in 8-bit temperature mode. An
out-of-range temperature reading is indicated as 00h or
0000h when too cold and FFh or FFE0h when too hot.
DS1923
Humidity Conversion
In addition to temperature, the DS1923 can log humidi-
ty data in an 8-bit or 16-bit format. Humidity values are
represented as 8-bit or 16-bit unsigned binary numbers
with a resolution of 0.64%RH in the 8-bit mode and
0.04%RH in the 16-bit mode.
With TRH and TRL representing the decimal equivalent
of a temperature reading, the temperature value is cal-
culated as:
The DS1923 reads data from its humidity sensor when-
ever a Forced Conversion command is executed (see
the Memory/Control Function Commands section) or
during a mission if the device is set up to log humidity
data. Regardless of its setup, the DS1923 always reads
16 bits from the humidity sensor. The result of the latest
humidity reading is found at address 020Eh (low byte)
and 020Fh (high byte). The most significant bit read
from the humidity sensor can always be found as H11
at address 020Fh. Due to the 12-bit digital output of the
humidity sensor, the lower 4 bits in 16-bit format are
undefined.
ϑ(°C) = TRH/2 - 41 + TRL/512 (16-bit mode,
TLFS = 1, see address 0213h)
ϑ(°C) = TRH/2 - 41 (8-bit mode, TLFS = 0,
see address 0213h)
This equation is valid for converting temperature read-
ings stored in the data-log memory as well as for data
read from the Latest Temperature Conversion Result
register.
To specify the temperature alarm thresholds, the previ-
ous equations are resolved to:
TALM = 2 x ϑ(°C) + 82

During a mission, if humidity logging is enabled, the
HRH byte (H11 to H4) is always recorded. The HRL
byte is only recorded if the DS1923 is set up for 16-bit
humidity logging. The logging mode (8-bit or 16-bit) is
selected through the HLFS bit at the Mission Control
register, address 0213h.
With HRH and HRL representing the decimal equivalent
of a humidity reading, the actual humidity is calculated
according to the algorithms shown in the table below.
16-BIT MODE, HLFS = 1
8-BIT MODE, HLFS = 0
(N/A)
IVAL = (HRH x 256 + HRL)/16
Round IVAL down to the nearest integer; this eliminates the
undefined 4 bits of HRL.
ADVAL = IVAL x 5.02/4096
ADVAL = HRH x 5.02/256
HUMIDITY(%RH) = (ADVAL - 0.958)/0.0307
The result is a raw humidity reading that needs to be
corrected to achieve the specified accuracy. See the
Software Correction Algorithm for Humidity section for
further details.
mode (8-bit or 16-bit), only the most significant byte of a
humidity conversion is used to determine whether an
alarm is generated. The alarm thresholds are applied to
the raw humidity readings. Therefore, if software correc-
tion is used, the effect of the software correction is to be
reversed before calculating a humidity alarm threshold.
For example, let the desired alarm threshold be 60%RH.
The 60% threshold may correspond to a raw reading of
65%RH (i.e., before correction). To set a 60%RH (after
correction) threshold, the HALM value then needs to be
calculated for 65%RH.
To specify the humidity alarm thresholds, the equation
needs to be resolved to:
ADVAL = HUMIDITY(%RH) x 0.0307 + 0.958
HALM = ADVAL x 256/5.02
Round HALM to the nearest integer.
The HALM value needs to be converted into hexadeci-
mal before it can be written to one of the Humidity Alarm
Threshold registers (Low Alarm address 020Ah; High
Alarm address 020Bh). Independent of the conversion

alarm signaling is enabled. The bits EHLA and EHHA
that enable the humidity alarm are located in the
Humidity Sensor Control register. The corresponding
alarm flags HLF and HHF are found in the Alarm Status
register at address 0214h.
Temperature Sensor Alarm
The DS1923 has two Temperature Alarm Threshold
registers (address 0208h, 0209h) to store values that
determine whether a critical temperature has been
reached. A temperature alarm is generated if the
device measures an alarming temperature and the
alarm signaling is enabled. The bits ETLA and ETHA
that enable the temperature alarm are located in the
Temperature Sensor Control register. The temperature
alarm flags TLF and THF are found in the Alarm Status
register at address 0214h.
Bit 1: Enable Humidity High Alarm (EHHA). This bit
controls whether, during a mission, the humidity high
alarm flag (HHF) can be set, if a value from the humidi-
ty sensor is equal to or higher than the value in the
Humidity High Alarm Threshold register. If EHHA is 1,
humidity high alarms are enabled. If EHHA is 0, humidi-
ty high alarms are not generated.
Bit 1: Enable Temperature High Alarm (ETHA). This
bit controls whether, during a mission, the temperature
high alarm flag (THF) can be set, if a temperature con-
version results in a value equal to or higher than the
value in the Temperature High Alarm Threshold register.
If ETHA is 1, temperature high alarms are enabled. If
ETHA is 0, temperature high alarms are not generated.
Bit 0: Enable Humidity Low Alarm (EHLA). This bit
controls whether, during a mission, the humidity low
alarm flag (HLF) can be set, if a value from the humidity
sensor is equal to or lower than the value in the
Humidity Low Alarm Threshold register. If EHLA is 1,
humidity low alarms are enabled. If EHLA is 0, humidity
low alarms are not generated.
Bit 0: Enable Temperature Low Alarm (ETLA). This
bit controls whether, during a mission, the temperature
low alarm flag (TLF) can be set, if a temperature con-
version results in a value equal to or lower than the
value in the Temperature Low Alarm Threshold register.
If ETLA is 1, temperature low alarms are enabled. If
ETLA is 0, temperature low alarms are not generated.
RTC Control
To minimize the power consumption of a DS1923, the
RTC oscillator should be turned off when the device is
not in use. The oscillator on/off bit is located in the RTC
Control register. This register also includes the EHSS
bit, which determines whether the sample rate is speci-
fied in seconds or minutes.
Humidity Alarm
The DS1923 has two Humidity Alarm Threshold regis-
ters (address 020Ah, 020Bh) to store values that deter-
mine whether humidity readings can generate an
alarm. Such an alarm is generated if the humidity data
read from the sensor qualifies for an alarm and the
Bit 1: Enable High-Speed Sample (EHSS). This bit
controls the speed of the sample rate counter. When set
to logic 0, the sample rate is specified in minutes. When
set to logic 1, the sample rate is specified in seconds.

Bit 0: Enable Oscillator (EOSC). This bit controls the

0, the logging and conversions stop once the data-log
memory is full. However, the RTC continues to run and
the MIP bit remains set until the Stop Mission command
is performed.
crystal oscillator of the RTC. When set to logic 1, the
oscillator starts. When written to logic 0, the oscillator
stops and the device is in a low-power data-retention
mode. This bit must be 1 for normal operation. A
Forced Conversion or Start Mission command automati-
cally starts the RTC by changing the EOSC bit to
logic 1.
Bit 3: Humidity Logging Format Selection (HLFS).
This bit specifies the format used to store humidity
readings in the data-log memory. If this bit is 0, the
data is stored in 8-bit format. If this bit is 1, the 16-bit
format is used (higher resolution). With 16-bit format,
the most significant byte is stored at the lower address.
Mission Control
The DS1923 is set up for its operation by writing appro-
priate data to its special function registers, which are
located in the two register pages. The settings in the
Mission Control register determine whether temperature
and/or humidity is logged, which format (8 or 16 bits)
applies, and whether old data can be overwritten by
new data once the data-log memory is full. An addition-
al control bit can be set to tell the DS1923 to wait with
logging data until a temperature alarm is encountered.
Bit 2: Temperature Logging Format Selection
(TLFS). This bit specifies the format used to store tem-
perature readings in the data-log memory. If this bit is
0, the data is stored in 8-bit format. If this bit is 1, the
16-bit format is used (higher resolution). With 16-bit for-
mat, the most significant byte is stored at the lower
address.
Bit 1: Enable Humidity Logging (EHL). To set up the
DS1923 for a humidity-logging mission, this bit must be
set to logic 1. If temperature and humidity logging are
enabled, the recorded humidity values begin at
address 2000h (TLFS = HLFS) or 1A00h (TLFS = 0;
HLFS = 1) or 2400h (TLFS = 1; HLFS = 0). If only
humidity logging is enabled, the recorded values are
stored starting at address 1000h. Since humidity data
has little scientific value without knowing the tempera-
ture, typically both humidity and temperature logging
are enabled (i.e., ETL and EHL are set to 1).
Bit 5: Start Mission Upon Temperature Alarm
(SUTA). This bit specifies whether a mission begins
immediately (includes delayed start) or if a temperature
alarm is required to start the mission. If this bit is 1, the
device performs an 8-bit temperature conversion at the
selected sample rate and begins with data logging only
if an alarming temperature (high alarm or low alarm)
was found. The first logged temperature is when the
alarm occurred. However, the Mission Sample Counter
does not increment. The start upon temperature alarm
function is only available if temperature logging is
enabled (ETL = 1).
Bit 0: Enable Temperature Logging (ETL). To set up
the device for a temperature-logging mission, this bit
must be set to logic 1. To successfully start a mission,
ETL or EHL must be 1. If temperature logging is
enabled, the recorded temperature values are always
stored starting at address 1000h.
Bit 4: Rollover Control (RO). This bit controls whether,
during a mission, the data-log memory is overwritten
with new data or whether data logging is stopped once
the data-log memory is full. Setting this bit to 1 enables
the rollover and data logging continues at the begin-

during a mission revealing a temperature equal to or
lower than the value in the Temperature Low Alarm reg-
ister. A forced conversion can affect the TLF bit. This
bit can also be set with the initial alarm in the SUTA = 1
mode.
Alarm Status
The fastest way to determine whether a programmed
temperature or humidity threshold was exceeded during
a mission is through reading the Alarm Status register.
In a networked environment that contains multiple
DS1923 iButtons, the devices that encountered an alarm
can quickly be identified by means of the Conditional
Search command (see the 1-Wire ROM Function
Commands section). The humidity and temperature
alarm only occurs if enabled (see the Temperature
Sensor Alarm and Humidity Alarm sections). The BOR
alarm is always enabled.
General Status
The information in the General Status register tells the
host computer whether a mission-related command
was executed successfully. Individual status bits indi-
cate whether the DS1923 is performing a mission, wait-
ing for a temperature alarm to trigger the logging of
data or whether the data from the latest mission has
been cleared.
Bit 7: Battery-On Reset Alarm (BOR). If this bit reads
1, the device has performed a power-on reset. This
indicates that the device has experienced a shock big
enough to interrupt the internal battery power supply.
The device can still appear functional, but it has lost its
factory calibration. Any data found in the data-log
memory should be disregarded.
Bit 4: Waiting for Temperature Alarm (WFTA). If this
bit reads 1, the mission start upon temperature alarm
was selected and the Start Mission command was suc-
cessfully executed, but the device has not yet experi-
enced the temperature alarm. This bit is cleared after a
temperature alarm event, but is not affected by the
Clear Memory command. Once set, WFTA remains set
if a mission is stopped before a temperature alarm
occurs. To clear WFTA manually before starting a new
mission, set the high temperature alarm (address
0209h) to -40°C and perform a forced conversion.
Bit 3: Humidity High Alarm Flag (HHF). If this bit
reads 1, there was at least one humidity reading during
a mission revealing a value equal to or higher than the
value in the Humidity High Alarm register. A forced
conversion can affect the HHF bit.
Bit 2: Humidity Low Alarm Flag (HLF). If this bit reads
1, there was at least one humidity reading during a mis-
sion revealing a value equal to or lower than the value
in the Humidity Low Alarm register. A forced conversion
can affect the HLF bit.
Bit 3: Memory Cleared (MEMCLR). If this bit reads 1,
the Mission Timestamp, Mission Samples Counter, and
all the alarm flags of the Alarm Status register have
been cleared in preparation of a new mission.
Executing the Clear Memory command clears these
memory sections. The MEMCLR bit returns to 0 as soon
as a new mission is started by using the Start Mission
command. The memory must be cleared for a mission
to start.
Bit 1: Temperature High Alarm Flag (THF). If this bit
reads 1, there was at least one temperature conversion
during a mission revealing a temperature equal to or
higher than the value in the Temperature High Alarm
register. A forced conversion can affect the THF bit.
This bit can also be set with the initial alarm in the
SUTA = 1 mode.
Bit 1: Mission in Progress (MIP). If this bit reads 1, the
device has been set up for a mission and this mission is
still in progress. The MIP bit returns from logic 1 to logic
0 when a mission is ended. See the Start Mission with
Password and Stop Mission with Password sections.
Bit 0: Temperature Low Alarm Flag (TLF). If this bit
reads 1, there was at least one temperature conversion

Mission Start Delay
The content of the Mission Start Delay Counter register
tells how many minutes must expire from the time a mis-
sion was started until the first measurement of the mis-
sion takes place (SUTA = 0) or until the device starts
testing the temperature for a temperature alarm (SUTA =
1). The Mission Start Delay register is stored as an
unsigned 24-bit integer number. The maximum delay is
16,777,215min, equivalent to 11,650 days or roughly
31yr. If the start delay is nonzero and the SUTA bit is set
to 1, first the delay must expire before the device starts
testing for temperature alarms to begin logging data.
Mission Timestamp
The Mission Timestamp register indicates the date and time
of the first temperature and humidity sample of the mission.
There is only read access to the Mission Timestamp register.
Mission Progress Indicator
Depending on settings in the Mission Control register
(address 0213h), the DS1923 logs temperature and/or
humidity in 8-bit or 16-bit format. The description of the
ETL and EHL bit explains where the device stores data
in its data-log memory. The Mission Samples Counter
register together with the starting address and the log-
ging format (8 or 16 bits) provide the information to iden-
tify valid blocks of data that have been gathered during
the current (MIP = 1) or latest mission (MIP = 0). See the
Data-Log Memory Usage section for an illustration. Note
that when SUTA = 1, the Mission Samples Counter does
not increment when the first sample is logged.
For a typical mission, the Mission Start Delay is 0. If a
mission is too long for a single DS1923 to store all read-
ings at the selected sample rate, one can use several
devices and set the Mission Start Delay for the second
device to start recording as soon as the memory of the
first device is full, and so on. The RO bit in the Mission
Control register (address 0213h) must be set to 0 to
prevent overwriting of collected data once the data-log
memory is full.
The number read from the Mission Samples Counter indi-
cates how often the DS1923 woke up during a mission to
measure temperature and/or humidity. The number for-
mat is 24-bit unsigned integer. The Mission Samples
Counter is reset through the Clear Memory command.

Other Indicators
The Device Samples Counter register is similar to the
Mission Samples Counter register. During a mission this
counter increments whenever the DS1923 wakes up to
measure and log data and when the device is testing
for a temperature alarm in SUTA mode. Between mis-
sions, the counter increments whenever the Forced
Conversion command is executed. This way the Device
Samples Counter register functions like a gas gauge for
the battery that powers the iButton.
Security by Password
The DS1923 is designed to use two passwords that
control read access and full access. Reading from or
writing to the scratchpad as well as the Forced
Conversion command does not require a password.
The password must be transmitted immediately after
the command code of the memory or control function. If
password checking is enabled, the password transmit-
ted is compared to the passwords stored in the device.
The data pattern stored in the Password Control regis-
ter determines whether password checking is enabled.
The Device Samples Counter register is reset to zero
when the iButton is assembled. The counter increments
a couple of times during final test. The number format is
24-bit unsigned integer. The maximum number that can
be represented in this format is 16,777,215.
To enable password checking, the EPW bits need to
form a binary pattern of 10101010 (AAh). The default
pattern of EPW is different from AAh. If the EPW pattern
is different from AAh, any pattern is accepted as long
as it has a length of exactly 64 bits. Once enabled,
changing the passwords and disabling password
checking requires the knowledge of the current full-
access password.
The code in the Device Configuration register allows the
master to distinguish between the DS2422 chip and dif-
ferent versions of the DS1922 iButtons. The Device
Configuration Register table shows the codes assigned
to the various devices.

Before enabling password checking, passwords for
read-only access as well as for full access
(read/write/control) must be written to the password
registers. Setting up a password or enabling/dis-
abling the password checking is done in the same
way as writing data to a memory location; only the
address is different. Since they are located in the
same memory page, both passwords can be rede-
fined at the same time.
The Full Access Password must be transmitted exactly
in the sequence FP0, FP1…FP62, FP63. It affects the
commands Read Memory with CRC, Copy Scratchpad,
Clear Memory, Start Mission, and Stop Mission. The
DS1923 executes the command only if the password
transmitted by the master was correct or if password
checking is not enabled.
Due to the special behavior of the write-access logic,
the Password Control register and both passwords
must be written at the same time. When setting up new
passwords, always verify (read back) the scratchpad
before sending the Copy Scratchpad command. After a
new password is successfully copied from the scratch-
pad to its memory location, erase the scratchpad by fill-
ing it with new data (Write Scratchpad command).
Otherwise, a copy of the passwords remains in the
scratchpad for public read access.
The Read Access Password must be transmitted exact-
ly in the sequence RP0, RP1…RP62, RP63. This pass-
word only applies to the Read Memory with CRC
command. The DS1923 delivers the requested data
only if the password transmitted by the master was cor-
rect or if password checking is not enabled.
______________________________________________________________________________________ 25
Hygrochron Temperature/Humidity Logger
iButton with 8KB Data-Log Memory
If alarm signaling is desired, the temperature alarm
Data-Log Memory Usage
and/or humidity alarm low and high thresholds must be
defined. See the Temperature Conversion section for
information on how to convert a temperature value into
the binary code to be written to the threshold registers.
See the Humidity Conversion section for information on
determining the thresholds for the humidity alarm. In
addition, the temperature alarm and/or humidity alarm
must be enabled for the low and/or high threshold. This
makes the device respond to a Conditional Search
command (see the1-Wire ROM Function Commands
section), provided that an alarming condition has been
encountered.
Once set up for a mission, the DS1923 logs the temper-
ature and/or humidity measurements at equidistant time
points entry after entry in its data-log memory. The
data-log memory can store 8192 entries in 8-bit format
or 4096 entries in 16-bit format (Figure 7a). If tempera-
ture as well as humidity are logged, both in the same
format, the memory is split into two equal sections that
can store 4096 8-bit entries or 2048 16-bit entries
(Figure 7b). If the device is set up to log data in differ-
ent formats, e. g., temperature in 8-bit and humidity in
16-bit format, the memory is split into blocks of different
size, accommodating 2560 entries for either data
source (Figure 7c). In this case, the upper 256 bytes
are not used. In 16-bit format, the higher 8 bits of an
entry are stored at the lower address. Knowing the
starting time point (Mission Timestamp) and the interval
between temperature measurements, one can recon-
struct the time and date of each measurement.
DS1923
The setting of the RO bit (rollover enable) and sample
rate depends on the duration of the mission and the
monitoring requirements. If the most recently logged
data is important, the rollover should be enabled (RO =
1). Otherwise one should estimate the duration of the
mission in minutes and divide the number by 8192 (sin-
gle channel 8-bit format) or 4096 (single channel 16-bit
format, two channels 8-bit format) or 2048 (two channels
16-bit format) or 2560 (two channels, one 8-bit and one
16-bit format) to calculate the value of the sample rate
(number of minutes between conversions). If the esti-
mated duration of a mission is 10 days (= 14400min), for
example, then the 8192-byte capacity of the data-log
memory would be sufficient to store a new 8-bit value
every 1.8min (110s). If the data-log memory of the
DS1923 is not large enough to store all readings, one
can use several devices and set the Mission Start Delay
to values that make the second device start logging as
soon as the memory of the first device is full, and so on.
The RO-bit needs to be set to 0 to disable rollover that
would otherwise overwrite the logged data.
There are two alternatives to the way the DS1923
behaves after the data-log memory is filled with data.
The user can program the device to either stop any fur-
ther recording (disable rollover) or overwrite the previ-
ously recorded data (enable rollover), one entry at a
time, starting again at the beginning of the respective
memory section. The contents of the Mission Samples
Counter in conjunction with the sample rate and the
Mission Timestamp allow reconstructing the time
points of all values stored in the data-log memory. This
gives the exact history over time for the most recent
measurements taken. Earlier measurements cannot be
reconstructed.
Missioning
After the RO bit and the Mission Start Delay are set, the
sample rate must be written to the Sample Rate regis-
ter. The sample rate can be any value from 1 to 16,383,
coded as an unsigned 14-bit binary number. The
fastest sample rate is one sample per second (EHSS =
1, sample rate = 0001h) and the slowest is one sample
every 273.05hr (EHSS = 0, sample rate = 3FFFh). To
get one sample every 6min, for example, the sample
rate value must be set to 6 (EHSS = 0) or 360 decimal
(equivalent to 0168h at EHSS = 1).
The typical task of the DS1923 iButton is recording tem-
perature and/or humidity. Before the device can per-
form this function, it needs to be set up properly. This
procedure is called missioning.
First, the DS1923 must have its RTC set to a valid time
and date. This reference time can be the local time, or,
when used inside of a mobile unit, UTC (also called
GMT, Greenwich Mean Time), or any other time stan-
dard that was agreed upon. The RTC oscillator must be
running (EOSC = 1). The memory assigned to store the
Mission Timestamp, Mission Samples Counter, and
alarm flags must be cleared using the Memory Clear
command. To enable the device for a mission, at least
one of the enable logging bits (ETL, EHL) must be set
to 1. These are general settings that must be made in
any case, regardless of the type of object to be moni-
tored and the duration of the mission.
If there is a risk of unauthorized access to the DS1923
or manipulation of data, one should define passwords
for read access and full access. Before the passwords
become effective, their use must be enabled. See the
Security by Password section for more details.

The last step to begin a mission is to issue the Start
Mission command. As soon as it has received this com-
mand, the DS1923 sets the MIP flag and clears the
MEMCLR flag. With the immediate/delayed start mode
(SUTA = 0), after as many minutes as specified by the
Mission Start Delay are over, the device wakes up,
copies the current date and time to the Mission
Timestamp register, and logs the first entry of the mis-

Counter and Device Samples Counter. All subsequent

at any time, e.g., to watch the progress of a mission.
Attempts to read the passwords read 00h bytes instead
of the data that is stored in the password registers.
Memory Access
Address Registers and Transfer Status
Because of the serial data transfer, the DS1923
employs three address registers called TA1, TA2, and
E/S (Figure 8). Registers TA1 and TA2 must be loaded
with the target address to which the data is written or
from which data is sent to the master upon a Read
command. Register E/S acts like a byte counter and
transfer status register. It is used to verify data integrity
with Write commands. Therefore, the master only has
read access to this register. The lower 5 bits of the E/S
register indicate the address of the last byte that has
been written to the scratchpad. This address is called
ending offset. The DS1923 requires that the ending
offset is always 1Fh for a Copy Scratchpad to func-
tion. Bit 5 of the E/S register, called PF or partial byte
flag, is set if the number of data bits sent by the master
is not an integer multiple of 8. Bit 6 is always a 0. Note
that the lowest 5 bits of the target address also deter-
mine the address within the scratchpad, where interme-
diate storage of data begins. This address is called
byte offset. If the target address for a Write command is
13Ch, for example, the scratchpad stores incoming
data beginning at the byte offset 1Ch and is full after
only 4 bytes. The corresponding ending offset in this
example is 1Fh. For best economy of speed and
DS1923
If the start upon temperature alarm mode is chosen
(SUTA = 1) and temperature logging is enabled (ETL =
1), the DS1923 first waits until the start delay is over.
Then the device wakes up in intervals as specified by
the sample rate and EHSS bit and measures the tem-
perature. This increments the Device Samples Counter
register only. The first sample of the mission is logged
when the temperature alarm occurred. However, the
Mission Sample Counter does not increment. One sam-
ple period later the Mission Timestamp register is set.
From then on, both the Mission Samples Counter and
Device Samples Counter registers increment at the
same time. All subsequent log entries are made as
specified by the value in the Sample Rate register and
the EHSS bit.
The general-purpose memory operates independently of
the other memory sections and is not write protected
during a mission. All the DS1923’s memory can be read

Function Commands
the beginning of a page, i.e., the byte offset is 0. Thus,
the full 32-byte capacity of the scratchpad is available,
resulting also in the ending offset of 1Fh. The ending
offset together with the PF flag are a means to support
the master checking the data integrity after a Write
command. The highest valued bit of the E/S register,
called authorization accepted (AA), indicates that a
valid Copy command for the scratchpad has been
received and executed. Writing data to the scratchpad
clears this flag.
Figure 9 shows the protocols necessary for accessing
the memory and the special function registers of the
DS1923. An example on how to use these and other
functions to set up the DS1923 for a mission is included
in the Mission Example: Prepare and Start a New
Mission section. The communication between the mas-
ter and the DS1923 takes place either at standard
speed (default, OD = 0) or at overdrive speed (OD =
1). If not explicitly set into the overdrive mode, the
DS1923 assumes standard speed. Internal memory
access during a mission has priority over external
access through the 1-Wire interface. This affects sever-
al commands in this section. See the Memory Access
Conflicts section for details and solutions.
Writing with Verification
To write data to the DS1923, the scratchpad must be
used as intermediate storage. First, the master issues
the Write Scratchpad command to specify the desired
target address, followed by the data to be written to the
scratchpad. In the next step, the master sends the
Read Scratchpad command to read the scratchpad
and to verify data integrity. As preamble to the scratch-
pad data, the DS1923 sends the requested target
address TA1 and TA2 and the contents of the E/S
Register. If the PF flag is set, data did not arrive cor-
rectly in the scratchpad. The master does not need to
continue reading; it can start a new trial to write data to
the scratchpad. Similarly, a set AA flag indicates that
the Write command was not recognized by the device.
If everything went correctly, both flags are cleared and
the ending offset indicates the address of the last byte
written to the scratchpad. Now the master can continue
verifying every data bit. After the master has verified the
data, it must send the Copy Scratchpad command.
This command must be followed exactly by the data of
the three address registers TA1, TA2, and E/S, as the
master has read them verifying the scratchpad. As
soon as the DS1923 has received these bytes, it copies
the data to the requested location beginning at the tar-
get address.
Write Scratchpad [0Fh]
After issuing the Write Scratchpad command, the mas-
ter must first provide the 2-byte target address, fol-
lowed by the data to be written to the scratchpad. The
data is written to the scratchpad starting at the byte off-
set T[4:0]. The master must send as many bytes as are
needed to reach the ending offset of 1Fh. If a data byte
is incomplete, its content is ignored and the partial byte
flag PF is set.
When executing the Write Scratchpad command, the
CRC generator inside the DS1923 calculates a CRC of
the entire data stream, starting at the command code
and ending at the last data byte sent by the master
(Figure 15). This CRC is generated using the CRC-16
polynomial by first clearing the CRC generator and then
shifting in the command code (0Fh) of the Write
Scratchpad command, the target addresses TA1 and
TA2 as supplied by the master, and all the data bytes.
If the ending offset is 11111b, the master can send 16
read time slots and receive the inverted CRC-16 gener-
ated by the DS1923.
Note that both register pages are write protected dur-
ing a mission. Although the Write Scratchpad command
works normally at any time, the subsequent copy
scratchpad to a register page fails during a mission.

Read Scratchpad [AAh]
This command is used to verify scratchpad data and
target address. After issuing the Read Scratchpad
command, the master begins reading. The first 2 bytes
are the target address. The next byte is the ending off-
set/data status byte (E/S) followed by the scratchpad
data beginning at the byte offset T[4:0], as shown in
Figure 8. The master can continue reading data until
the end of the scratchpad after which it receives an
inverted CRC-16 of the command code, target
addresses TA1 and TA2, the E/S byte, and the scratch-
pad data starting at the target address. After the CRC
is read, the bus master reads logic 1s from the DS1923
until a reset pulse is issued.
successful. The AA bit remaining at 0 indicates this.
Read Memory with Password
and CRC [69h]
The Read Memory with CRC command is the general
function to read from the device. This command gener-
ates and transmits a 16-bit CRC following the last data
byte of a memory page.
DS1923
After having sent the command code of the Read
Memory with CRC command, the bus master sends a
2-byte address that indicates a starting byte location.
Next, the master must transmit one of the 64-bit pass-
words. If passwords are enabled and the transmitted
password does not match one of the stored passwords,
the Read Memory with Password and CRC command
fails. The device stops communicating and waits for a
reset pulse. If the password was correct or if pass-
words were not enabled, the master reads data from
the DS1923 beginning from the starting address and
continuing until the end of a 32-byte page is reached.
At that point the bus master sends 16 additional read-
data time slots and receives the inverted 16-bit CRC.
With subsequent read-data time slots the master
receives data starting at the beginning of the next
memory page followed again by the CRC for that page.
This sequence continues until the bus master resets the
device. When trying to read the passwords or memory
areas that are marked as “reserved,” the DS1923 trans-
mits 00h or FFh bytes, respectively. The CRC at the end
of a 32-byte memory page is based on the data as it
was transmitted.
Copy Scratchpad with Password [99h]
This command is used to copy data from the scratch-
pad to the writable memory sections. After issuing the
Copy Scratchpad command, the master must provide a
3-byte authorization pattern, which can be obtained by
reading the scratchpad for verification. This pattern
must exactly match the data contained in the three
address registers (TA1, TA2, E/S, in that order). Next,
the master must transmit the 64-bit full access pass-
word. If passwords are enabled and the transmitted
password is different from the stored full access pass-
word, the Copy Scratchpad with Password command
fails. The device stops communicating and waits for a
reset pulse. If the password was correct or if pass-
words were not enabled, the device tests the 3-byte
authorization code. If the authorization code pattern
matches, the AA flag is set and the copy begins. A pat-
tern of alternating 1s and 0s is transmitted after the
data has been copied until the master issues a reset
pulse. While the copy is in progress, any attempt to
reset the part is ignored. Copy typically takes 2μs per
byte.
With the initial pass through the Read Memory with
CRC flow, the 16-bit CRC value is the result of shifting
the command byte into the cleared CRC generator fol-
lowed by the 2 address bytes and the contents of the
data memory. Subsequent passes through the Read
Memory with CRC flow generate a 16-bit CRC that is
the result of clearing the CRC generator and then shift-
ing in the contents of the data memory page. After the
16-bit CRC of the last page is read, the bus master
receives logic 1s from the DS1923 until a reset pulse is
issued. The Read Memory with CRC command
sequence can be ended at any point by issuing a reset
pulse.
The data to be copied is determined by the three
address registers. The scratchpad data from the begin-
ning offset through the ending offset are copied, start-
ing at the target address. The AA flag remains at logic
1 until it is cleared by the next Write Scratchpad com-
mand. With suitable password, the copy scratchpad
always functions for the 16 pages of data memory and
the 2 pages of calibration memory. While a mission is in

Clear Memory with Password [96h]
The Clear Memory with Password command is used to
prepare the device for another mission. This command
is only executed if no mission is in progress. After the
command code, the master must transmit the 64-bit
full-access password followed by an FFh dummy byte.
If passwords are enabled and the transmitted pass-
word is different from the stored full access password
or a mission is in progress, the Clear Memory with
Password command fails. The device stops communi-
cating and waits for a reset pulse. If the password was
correct or if passwords were not enabled, the device
clears the Mission Timestamp register, Mission
Samples Counter register, and all alarm flags of the
Alarm Status register. After these cells are cleared, the
MEMCLR bit of the General Status register reads 1 to
indicate the successful execution of the Clear Memory
with Password command. Clearing of the data-log
memory is not necessary because the Mission Samples
Counter indicates how many entries in the data-log
memory are valid.
Start Mission with Password [CCh]
The DS1923 uses a control function command to start a
mission. A new mission can only be started if the previ-
ous mission has been ended and the memory has been
cleared. After the command code, the master must
transmit the 64-bit full access password followed by an
FFh dummy byte. If passwords are enabled and the
transmitted password is different from the stored full-
access password or a mission is in progress, the Start
Mission with Password command fails. The device
stops communicating and waits for a reset pulse. If the
password was correct or if passwords were not
enabled, the device starts a mission. If SUTA = 0, the
sampling begins as soon as the Mission Start Delay is
over. If SUTA = 1, the first sample is written to the data-
log memory at the time the temperature alarm
occurred. However, the Mission Sample Counter does
not increment. One sample period later, the Mission
Timestamp register is set and the regular sampling and
logging begins. While the device is waiting for a tem-
perature alarm to occur, the WFTA flag in the General
Status register reads 1. During a mission there is only
read access to the register pages.
DS1923
Forced Conversion [55h]
The Forced Conversion command can be used to mea-
sure the temperature and humidity without starting a
mission. After the command code, the master must
send one FFh byte to get the conversion started. The
conversion result is found as a 16-bit value in the Latest
Temperature Conversion Result and Latest Humidity
Conversion Result registers. This command is only exe-
cuted if no mission is in progress (MIP = 0). It cannot
be interrupted and takes maximum 666ms to complete.
During this time memory access through the 1-Wire
interface is blocked. The device behaves the same way
as during a mission when the sampling interferes with a
memory/control function command. See the Memory
Access Conflicts section for details.
Stop Mission with Password [33h]
The DS1923 uses a control function command to stop a
mission. Only a mission that is in progress can be
stopped. After the command code, the master must
transmit the 64-bit full access password followed by a
FFh dummy byte. If passwords are enabled and the
transmitted password is different from the stored full-
access password or a mission is not in progress, the
Stop Mission with Password command fails. The device
stops communicating and waits for a reset pulse. If the
password was correct or if passwords were not
enabled, the device clears the MIP bit in the General
Status register and restores write access to the register
pages. The WFTA bit is not cleared. See the description
of the general status register for a method to clear the
WFTA bit.

waiting for a temperature alarm to start a mission, peri-
odically a temperature and/or humidity sample is taken

1-Wire communication. As a consequence, device-spe-

and 1-Wire reset) do not perform properly when internal
and “external” activities interfere with each other. Not

The interference is more likely to be seen with a high-
sample rate (one sample every second) and with high-
resolution logging, which can last up to 666ms when
both temperature and humidity are recorded. With
lower sample rates, interference may hardly be visible
at all. In any case, when writing driver software it is
important to know about the possibility of interference
and to take measures to work around it.

The value of the pullup resistor primarily depends on
1-Wire Bus System
the network size and load conditions. The DS1923
requires a pullup resistor of maximum 2.2kΩ at any
speed.
The 1-Wire bus is a system that has a single bus mas-
ter and one or more slaves. In all instances the DS1923
is a slave device. The bus master is typically a micro-
controller. The discussion of this bus system is broken
down into three topics: hardware configuration, trans-
action sequence, and 1-Wire signaling (signal types
and timing). The 1-Wire protocol defines bus transac-
tions in terms of the bus state during specific time slots
that are initiated on the falling edge of sync pulses from
the bus master.
The idle state for the 1-Wire bus is high. If for any rea-
son a transaction needs to be suspended, the bus
must be left in the idle state if the transaction is to
resume. If this does not occur and the bus is left low for
more than 16μs (overdrive speed) or more than 120μs
(standard speed), one or more devices on the bus may
be reset. Note that the DS1923 does not quite meet the
full 16μs maximum low time of the normal 1-Wire bus
overdrive timing. With the DS1923 the bus must be left
low for no longer than 12μs at overdrive to ensure that
no DS1923 on the 1-Wire bus performs a reset. The
DS1923 communicates properly when used in conjunc-
tion with a DS2480B or DS2490 1-Wire driver and
adapters that are based on these driver chips.
DS1923
Hardware Configuration
The 1-Wire bus has only a single line by definition; it is
important that each device on the bus be able to drive
it at the appropriate time. To facilitate this, each device
attached to the 1-Wire bus must have open-drain or
three-state outputs. The 1-Wire port of the DS1923 is
open drain with an internal circuit equivalent to that
shown in Figure 10.
Transaction Sequence
The protocol for accessing the DS1923 through the
1-Wire port is as follows:
A multidrop bus consists of a 1-Wire bus with multiple
slaves attached. At standard speed the 1-Wire bus has
a maximum data rate of 16.3kbps. The speed can be
boosted to 142kbps by activating the overdrive mode.
The DS1923 is not guaranteed to be fully compliant to
the iButton standard. Its maximum data rate in standard
speed is 15.4kbps and 125kbps in overdrive speed.

tration number, starting with the least significant bit, the
Initialization
All transactions on the 1-Wire bus begin with an initial-
bus master issues a triplet of time slots. On the first slot,
each slave device participating in the search outputs
the true value of its registration number bit. On the sec-
ond slot, each slave device participating in the search
outputs the complemented value of its registration num-
ber bit. On the third slot, the master writes the true
value of the bit to be selected. All slave devices that do
not match the bit written by the master stop participat-
ing in the search. If both of the read bits are zero, the
master knows that slave devices exist with both states
of the bit. By choosing which state to write, the bus
master branches in the ROM code tree. After one com-
plete pass, the bus master knows the registration num-
ber of a single device. Additional passes identify the
registration numbers of the remaining devices. Refer to
Application Note 187: 1-Wire Search Algorithm for a
detailed discussion, including an example.
ization sequence. The initialization sequence consists
of a reset pulse transmitted by the bus master followed
by presence pulse(s) transmitted by the slave(s). The
presence pulse lets the bus master know that the
DS1923 is on the bus and is ready to operate. For more
details, see the 1-Wire Signaling section.
1-Wire ROM Function Commands
Once the bus master has detected a presence, it can
issue one of the eight ROM function commands that the
DS1923 supports. All ROM function commands are 8
bits long. A list of these commands follows (see the

This command allows the bus master to read the
DS1923’s 8-bit family code, unique 48-bit serial number,
and 8-bit CRC. This command can only be used if there
is a single slave on the bus. If more than one slave is pre-
sent on the bus, a data collision occurs when all slaves
try to transmit at the same time (open drain produces a
wired-AND result). The resultant family code and 48-bit
serial number results in a mismatch of the CRC.
Conditional Search ROM [ECh]
The Conditional Search ROM command operates simi-
larly to the Search ROM command except that only
those devices that fulfill certain conditions participate in
the search. This function provides an efficient means
for the bus master to identify devices on a multidrop
system that have to signal an important event. After
each pass of the conditional search that successfully
determined the 64-bit ROM code for a specific device
on the multidrop bus, that particular device can be indi-
vidually accessed as if a Match ROM had been issued,
since all other devices have dropped out of the search
process and are waiting for a reset pulse.
Match ROM [55h]
The Match ROM command, followed by a 64-bit ROM
sequence, allows the bus master to address a specific
DS1923 on a multidrop bus. Only the DS1923 that exact-
ly matches the 64-bit ROM sequence responds to the fol-
lowing memory function command. All other slaves wait
for a reset pulse. This command can be used with a sin-
gle device or multiple devices on the bus.
The DS1923 responds to the conditional search ROM
command if one of the five alarm flags of the Alarm
Status register (address 0214h) reads 1. The humidity
and temperature alarm only occurs if enabled (see the
Temperature Sensor Alarm and Humidity Alarm sec-
tions). The BOR alarm is always enabled. The first
alarm that occurs makes the device respond to the
Conditional Search ROM command.
Search ROM [F0h]
When a system is initially brought up, the bus master
might not know the number of devices on the 1-Wire
bus or their registration numbers. By taking advantage
of the wired-AND property of the bus, the master can
use a process of elimination to identify the registration

ROM command sets the DS1923 in the overdrive mode
Skip ROM [CCh]
This command can save time in a single-drop bus sys-
tem by allowing the bus master to access the memory
functions without providing the 64-bit ROM code. For
example, if more than one slave is present on the bus
and a Read command is issued following the Skip ROM
command, data collision occurs on the bus as multiple
slaves transmit simultaneously (open-drain pulldowns
produce a wired-AND result).
(OD = 1). All communication following this command
must occur at overdrive speed until a reset pulse of
minimum 690μs duration resets all devices on the bus
to standard speed (OD = 0).
When issued on a multidrop bus, this command sets all
overdrive-supporting devices into overdrive mode. To
subsequently address a specific overdrive-supporting
device, a reset pulse at overdrive speed must be
issued followed by a Match ROM or Search ROM com-
mand sequence. This speeds up the time for the
search process. If more than one slave supporting
overdrive is present on the bus and the Overdrive-Skip
ROM command is followed by a Read command, data
collision occurs on the bus as multiple slaves transmit
simultaneously (open-drain pulldowns produce a wired-
AND result).
DS1923
Resume [A5h]
The DS1923 must be accessed several times before a
mission starts. In a multidrop environment this means
that the 64-bit ROM code after a Match ROM command
must be repeated for every access. To maximize the
data throughput in a multidrop environment, the Resume
command was implemented. This command checks the
status of the RC bit and, if it is set, directly transfers con-
trol to the memory/control functions, similar to a Skip
ROM command. The only way to set the RC bit is
through successfully executing the Match ROM, Search
ROM, or Overdrive-Match ROM command. Once the RC
bit is set, the device can repeatedly be accessed
through the Resume command. Accessing another
device on the bus clears the RC bit, preventing two or
more devices from simultaneously responding to the
Resume command.
Overdrive-Match ROM [69h]
The Overdrive-Match ROM command followed by a
64-bit ROM sequence transmitted at overdrive speed
allows the bus master to address a specific DS1923 on
a multidrop bus and to simultaneously set it in overdrive
mode. Only the DS1923 that exactly matches the 64-bit
ROM sequence responds to the subsequent
memory/control function command. Slaves already in
overdrive mode from a previous Overdrive-Skip ROM or
successful Overdrive-Match ROM command remain in
overdrive mode. All overdrive-capable slaves return to
standard speed at the next reset pulse of minimum
690μs duration. The Overdrive-Match ROM command
can be used with a single or multiple devices on the
bus.
Overdrive-Skip ROM [3Ch]
On a single-drop bus this command can save time by
allowing the bus master to access the memory/control
functions without providing the 64-bit ROM code. Unlike
the normal Skip ROM command, the Overdrive-Skip

than 80μs, the device remains in overdrive mode.
The DS1923 requires strict protocols to ensure data
integrity. The protocol consists of four types of signaling
on one line: reset sequence with reset pulse and pres-
ence pulse, write-zero, write-one, and read-data. Except
for the presence pulse, the bus master initiates all these
signals. The DS1923 can communicate at two different
speeds: standard speed and overdrive speed. If not
explicitly set into the overdrive mode, the DS1923 com-
municates at standard speed. While in overdrive mode
the fast timing applies to all waveforms.
After the bus master has released the line, it goes into
receive mode (Rx). Now the 1-Wire bus is pulled to

through the pullup resistor or, in the case of a
DS2480B driver, through active circuitry. When the
threshold V is crossed, the DS1923 waits for t

The DS1923’s 1-Wire front-end differs from traditional
slave devices in four characteristics:
Slave-to-Master
A read-data time slot begins like a write-one time slot.
1) The falling edge of the presence pulse has a con-
trolled slew rate. This provides a better match to the
line impedance than a digitally switched transistor,
converting the high-frequency ringing known from
traditional devices into a smoother, low-bandwidth
transition. The slew-rate control is specified by the

2) There is additional lowpass filtering in the circuit that
detects the falling edge at the beginning of a time
slot. This reduces the sensitivity to high-frequency
noise. This additional filtering does not apply at over-
drive speed.

In a 1-Wire environment, line termination is possible
only during transients controlled by the bus master (1-

to noise of various origins. Depending on the physical
size and topology of the network, reflections from end
points and branch points can add up or cancel each
other to some extent. Such reflections are visible as

CRC, the 16-bit CRC is always communicated in the
inverted form. A CRC generator inside the DS1923
(Figure 15) calculates a new 16-bit CRC as shown in
the command flowchart of Figure 9. The bus master
compares the CRC value read from the device to the
one it calculates from the data and decides whether to
continue with an operation or to reread the portion of
the data with the CRC error. With the initial pass
through the Read Memory with CRC flowchart, the 16-
bit CRC value is the result of shifting the command byte
into the cleared CRC generator, followed by the 2
address bytes and the data bytes. The password is
excluded from the CRC calculation. Subsequent pass-
es through the Read Memory with CRC flowchart gen-
erate a 16-bit CRC that is the result of clearing the CRC
generator and then shifting in the data bytes.
CRC Generation
The DS1923 uses two types of CRCs. One CRC is an
8-bit type and is stored in the most significant byte of
the 64-bit ROM. The bus master can compute a CRC
value from the first 56 bits of the 64-bit ROM and com-
pare it to the value stored within the DS1923 to deter-
mine if the ROM data has been received error-free. The
equivalent polynomial function of this CRC is
8
5
4
X + X + X + 1. This 8-bit CRC is received in the true
(noninverted) form, and it is computed at the factory
and lasered into the ROM.
The other CRC is a 16-bit type, generated according to
the standardized CRC-16 polynomial function

tion when reading register pages or the data-log mem-

The software correction algorithm requires two addition-
al values, which are not stored in the device. For the
DS1923 these values are Tr1 = 60°C and Offset = 41.
Software Correction Algorithm
for Temperature
The accuracy of high-resolution temperature conver-
sion results (forced conversion as well as temperature
logs) can be improved through a correction algorithm.
The data needed for this software correction is stored in
the calibration memory (memory page 18). It consists of
reference temperature (Tr) and conversion result (Tc)
for two different temperatures, as shown below. See the
Temperature Conversion section for the binary number
format.
The correction algorithm consists of two steps, prepara-
tion and execution. The preparation step first converts
temperature data from binary to decimal °C format.
Next, three coefficients A, B, and C are computed. In
the execution step, the temperature reading as deliv-
ered by the DS1923 is first converted from the low/high-
byte format (TcL, TcH) to °C (Tc) and then corrected to
Tcorr. Once step 1 is performed, the three coefficients
can be used repeatedly to correct any temperature
reading and temperature log of the same device.

Temperature compensation uses the following equation:
RH Temperature Compensation
HTcorr = (Hcorr x K + α x (T - 25°C)
The data for the software correction of humidity is taken
at 25°C. Since the temperature characteristics of the
humidity sensor are known, humidity readings taken at
other temperatures can be corrected, provided the
temperature at the time of the humidity conversion is
also known. Therefore, to obtain the most accurate
humidity results, both temperature and humidity should
be logged.

Capacitive humidity sensors read higher humidity val-
ues than the actual humidity level when they are
exposed to a high-humidity environment for an extend-
ed time period. The DS1923’s humidity sensor pro-
duces readings that are higher than the actual humidity
when exposed to humidity levels of about 70%RH and
higher. This shift continues to increase while the device
remains at 70%RH and above. This effect is called sat-
uration drift, or hysteresis. This drift is reversible.
Readings return to their regular level when the DS1923
is removed from a high-humidity environment.

Algorithm for Humidity and RH Temperature
Compensation sections for details.
It is possible to compensate for most of the error intro-
duced by the saturation drift by post-processing tem-
perature and humidity logs using the equation below,
which is based on laboratory tests and curve-fitting
techniques.
The numbers in the equation are derived from curve fit-
ting. They apply to a time scale in hours.

some applications, compensation may not be neces-

Added text to the Application section: Note that the initial sealing level of
DS1923 achieves IP56. Aging and use conditions can degrade the integrity of
the seal over time, so for applications with significant exposure to liquids,
sprays, or other similar environments, it is recommended to place the
Hygrochron under a shield to protect it. (See www.maxim-ic.com/AN4126). The
hydrophobic filter may not protect the DS1923 from destruction in the event of
full submersion in liquid.
