Read Access Password
This password only applies to the function "Read Memory with Password”. If passwords are enabled (EPW = AAh,
see Password Control register), the 64-bit data pattern that the 1-Wire master has to transmit with the command
flow is compared to the passwords stored in the DS1977 iButton. The DS1977 delivers the requested data only if
the password transmitted by the master was correct or if password checking is not enabled.
Read Access Password Register
There is only write access to this register. The Read Access Password needs to be transmitted exactly in the
sequence RP0, RP1… RP62, RP63.
Full Access Password
This password applies to the functions "Read Memory with Password” and "Copy Scratchpad with Password”. If
passwords are enabled (EPW = AAh, see Password Control register), the 64-bit data pattern that the 1-Wire
master has to transmit with the command flow is compared to the passwords stored in the DS1977 iButton. The
DS1977 executes the command only if the password transmitted by the master was correct or if password
checking is not enabled.
Full Access Password Register
There is only write access to this register. The Full Access Password needs to be transmitted exactly in the
sequence FP0, FP1… FP62, FP63.
Password Control Register
The data pattern stored in the Password Control Register determines whether password checking is enabled. If
password checking is enabled, the password transmitted is compared to the passwords stored in the device.
Reading from or writing to the scratchpad does not require a password.

Register Details
To enable password checking, the EPW bits need to form a binary pattern of 10101010 (AAh). If the EPW pattern
is different from AAh, any password will be accepted, as long as it has a length of exactly 64 bits. Before enabling

This byte enables or disables the password protection, which applies
to reading from and writing to the memory except for the scratchpad.
If the EPW bits form a pattern of 10101010 (AAh), the device will
execute these commands only if the correct password is transmitted.
The default pattern of EPW is different from AAh.
