DS2436

11 of 29

TEMPERATURE REGISTERS (60h-61h)

The DS2436 can measure temperature without external components. The resulting temperature

measurement is placed in a two-byte Temperature Register. This register is implemented in SRAM, and

The temperature reading is provided in a 13-bit, two’s complement format, with 0.03125°C resolution.

Table 1 describes the exact relationship of output data to measured temperature. The data is transmitted

serially over the 1-Wire interface. The DS2436 can measure temperature over the range of -40°C to

+85°C in 0.03125°C increments. For Fahrenheit usage, a lookup table or conversion factor must be used.

Note that temperature is represented in the DS2436 in terms of a 0.03125°C LSB, yielding the following

13-bit format:

The MSB of the Temperature Register contains the integer portion of the temperature valve.
