DS2422 Maxim, DS2422 Datasheet - Page 17

• Manufacturer Part Number: DS2422
• Description: The DS2422 temperature/data logger combines the core functions of a fully featured data logger in a single chip
• Manufacturer: Maxim

MISSION CONTROL
The DS2422 is set up for its operation by writing appropriate 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
external data is logged, which format (8 or 16 bits) is to be used and whether old data may be overwritten by new
data, once the datalog memory is full. An additional control bit can be set to tell the DS2422 to wait with logging
data until a temperature alarm is encountered.
Mission Control Register Bitmap
During a mission, there is only read access to this register. Bits 6 and 7 have no function. They always read 1 and
cannot be written to 0.

To set up the device for a temperature-logging mission, this bit must be
To set up the device for a data-logging mission (recording data from
serial data interface), this bit must be set to logic 1. To successfully
start a mission, ETL or EDL must be 1. If only data logging is enabled
(no temperature data), the recorded data values will be stored starting
at address 1000h. If both, temperature and data logging are enabled,
the recorded data values will begin at address 2000h (TLFS = DLFS)
or 1A00h (TLFS = 0; DLFS = 1) or 2400h (TLFS = 1; DLFS = 0).

datalog memory is full. Setting this bit to 1 enables the rollover and
data logging continues at the beginning, overwriting previously
collected data. If this bit is 0, the logging and conversions will stop

and the MIP bit will remain set until the Stop Mission command is
performed.
delayed start) or if a temperature alarm will be required to start the
mission. If this bit is 1, the device will perform an 8-bit temperature
conversion at the selected sample rate and begin 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. This functionality is
guaranteed by design and not production tested.
