Nonvolatile write status can be monitored by reading the NVB bit in the status/configuration register:
NVB = 1 – a write to EEPROM memory is in progress, NVB = 0 – nonvolatile memory is idle.
THERMOSTAT MODE
In thermostat mode (T/R ¯ = 1), the DS1821 can operate as a standalone thermostat that triggers according
to the T
DS1821 powers-up performing continuous temperature conversions, and the DQ pin acts as the
thermostat output.
STANDALONE THERMOSTAT section of this datasheet.
Communications can be re-established with the DS1821 while it is in thermostat mode by pulling V
0V while the DQ line is held high, and then toggling the DQ line low 16 times as shown in Figure 12.
This temporarily places the DS1821 in 1-Wire mode, allowing microprocessor communication with the
DS1821 via the DQ pin. At this time any I/O function can be performed, such as reading/writing the T
T
procedure can be performed (pulling V
line 16 times) or the power can be cycled. Note that temporarily putting the DS1821 into 1-Wire mode
does not change the power-up mode of the device; this can only be changed by rewriting the T/R ¯ bit in
the status/configuration register.
approximately 10 seconds will cause the DS1821 to be powered down.
OPERATION – MEASURING TEMPERATURE
DS1821 output temperature data is calibrated in degrees centigrade and is stored in two’s complement
format in the 1-byte (8-bit) temperature register (see Figure 3), which the user can access when the
DS1821 is in 1-Wire mode (T/R ¯ = 0 in the status/configuration register). The sign bit (S) indicates if the
temperature is positive or negative; for positive numbers S = 0 and for negative numbers S = 1. Table 2
gives examples of digital output data and the corresponding temperature reading. For Fahrenheit
measurements, a lookup table or conversion routine must be used.
The DS1821 can be configured by the user to take continuous temperature measurements (continuous
conversion mode) or single measurements (one-shot mode). The desired configuration can be achieved
by setting the nonvolatile1SHOT bit in the status/configuration register: 1SHOT = 0 – continuous
conversion mode, 1SHOT = 1 – one-shot mode. Note that the 1SHOT setting only controls the operation
of the device in 1-Wire mode; in thermostat mode, continuous temperature conversions are started
automatically at power-up.
In continuous conversion mode, the Start Convert T [EEh] command initiates continuous temperature
conversions, which can be stopped using the Stop Convert T [22h] command. In one-shot mode the Start
Convert T [EEh] command initiates a single temperature conversion after which the DS1821 returns to a
low-power standby state.
configuration register to determine when the conversion is complete: DONE = 0 ― conversion in
progress, DONE = 1 ― conversion complete. The DONE bit does not provide conversion status in
continuous conversion mode since measurements are constantly in progress (i.e., DONE will always be
0).
