Introduction

一个MT-DS模块的单独图片

MT-DS is a temperature processing module designed for Dallas Temperature Sensors. This module works as a bridge between Dragino MS12 and Dallas/Maxim Onewire temperature sensors. it read temperature from Dallas Temp Sensors and send it to Dragino via UART port. Dragino MS12 will forward the temp info to remote server.

Features

  • Support devices:
    • DS18B20
    • DS1822
    • DS1820
  • Use ATmega168-20au MCU.
  • Show Sensor ID + Temp pairs as result.
  • Support 8 OneWire buses (with pull up 4.7K Ohm resister) and up to 80 Dallas Temp Sensors in a single Dragino.
  • Provide 5V power and GND to Dallas Temp Sensors.
  • Auto-detect new added sensors or removed sensors.
  • Remote upgrade via internet.
  • Compatible with Arduino IDE for easy debug.
  • Completely open source in both software and hardware, free to modify and change.

How to use this module

1-Wire protocol and Dallas Temperature Sensors

1-Wire bus system is designed by Dallas Semiconductor Corp. In the 1-Wire protocol. It uses a single signal line to do data transmit, receive and provide power (parasitic) to 1-Wire devices. 1-wire protocol makes it very easy for MCU to communicate with 1-wire devices.

Dalls DS18B20 is a typical 1-wire temperature sensors. It connects to MT-DS via 1-wire bus. each DS18B20 has a unique ID and multiple sensors
