DESCRIPTION
The DS1624 consists of two separate functional units: 1) a 256-byte nonvolatile E
2
memory and 2) a
direct-to-digital temperature sensor.
The nonvolatile memory is made up of 256 bytes of E
2
memory. This memory can be used to store any
type of information the user wishes. These memory locations are accessed through the 2-wire serial bus.
The direct-to-digital temperature sensor allows the DS1624 to measure the ambient temperature and
report the temperature in a 12-bit word with 0.0625癈 resolution. The temperature sensor and its related
registers are accessed through the 2-wire serial interface. Figure 1 shows a block diagram of the DS1624.
