DESCRIPTION
The DS2480B is a serial port to 1-Wire interface chip that supports standard and overdrive speeds. It con-
nects directly to UARTs and 5V RS232 systems. Interfacing to RS232C (±12V levels) requires a passive
clamping circuit and one 5V to ±12V level translator. Internal timers relieve the host of the burden of
generating the time-critical 1-Wire communication waveforms. In contrast to the DS9097(E) where a full
character must be sent by the host for each 1-Wire time slot, the DS2480B can translate each character
