[OpenTRV-dev] DS18B20 with Arduino

Thu Sep 19 20:14:54 BST 2013

Yes, forgot about the pullup. That would probably have to be driven only 
when required to enable low power consumption. The data sheet doesn't 
sanction anything else pulling the bus high. IME, though, you can get 
away without the 4k7 pullup and enable the AVRs internal pullup with a 
5v supply, and 1 or 2 devices on the bus, at any rate. Would need to 
check for lower voltages.
