Talk:1-Wire

message: "MicroLan" is a trademarked term, reserved by Dallas for talking about connected 1-Wire devices, and/or the net thus comprised. Wouldn't it be good if the Wikipedia entry made some reference to this, so that people coming to the encyclopedia to learn about MicroLans would be taken to the right page? Search on "microlan" today, and you're told there's nothing for you.
I once tried to add something but my approach wasn't, apparently, wiki-correct.
PS: "MicroLan" added to article, but maybe not the right way to get it into the index... or is indexing not instantaneous? If someone knows that something must be done to make the article show up on a search for MicroLan, please do it? (PS by Tkbwik 11:53, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

message: While AAG (http://www.aagelectronica.com/aag/index.html) is an excellent source of 1-Wire devices, I can't see why it is wiki-correct to have a link to that, but a link to my NOT FOR PROFIT guidance on 1-Wire programming was deemed "inappropriate".
Beautiful, those pages aren't. Informative? YOU try reading the Dallas documentation and doing something with the chips without help. I'd be grateful if someone would be willing to examine the pages, and create an external link to them, if they dare. They're at....

message: I don't quite understand what this is telling me... "The hardware level of the protocol is often performed by special software in the bus master and a resistor. "... probably 'cause I'm not a trained engineer, but could an engineer try to make that information a little more accessible, please?

message: Isn't it more common that the most significant bit is the identifier and the least is CRC?? I see that there is a reference to iButton, but if it is one from few cases then it should be noted.Moreover, Polish and Spanish wiki states that MSB is the identifier.

message: I think there is an error in 1wire.png. As I know bit frame always starts with the falling edge. That fact is not correctly marked at the end of the first and the last 0 during send.

replies: text: You are correct (middle of the 3 waveforms). See my comment above - the article shouldn't try to be a technical description, because errors will be made. Adpete (talk) 01:30, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

message: This article is entirely written from an engineering POV, there is no reference to the use of Dallas keys. The most common application is in retail (particularly in hospitality) to allow fast login to EPOS terminals by sales staff. It is not uncommon to have >200 logins per hour by different operators to a single terminal using this useful technology.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.155.193.120 (talk) 11:15, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Application? 

message: Listed as reason for deletion of link for LabVIEW 1Wire application suite "OneWire Utilities":
'at least one WP:RS out of the just 9 ghits for "labview" "interface innovations" "1wire"'
It is quite common to list resources for language applications for hardware. This happens to be the only commercially available one for LabVIEW and 1Wire. 
Another external reference: http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/211522
Furthermore, there are several links here that are hardware/software vendors for 1Wire products. How are these more relevant?
