1Wire serial EEPROM, DS28EC20 and similar, any experience?

[CuriousOne]

Hello.
Unfortunately, I was not able to read or write any I2C or SPI eeproms with PBP, so as last chance, I'm now looking into 1wire devices.
I have worked with DS18B20 and it poses no issues, but what about EEPROM? any code examples? can't find any....

Why can't you use I2C? I have a couple designs that use 24LC512 family with PBP, and no issues. What part number is the 1-wire device you are looking at?

I tried all sample codes and circuits for eeproms posted here
none seems to work for me.
for 1 wire device, haven't bought any yet, just deciding
For experiments i have DS2501-U chip at hands.

The I2C works just fine. Used many times the I2CREAD and I2CWRITE commands.

When there was a problem, was always my mistake in address, wrong use of commands (variable vs constant).

Complete diagram along with your misbehaving code would help.

I have posted all that here already.
And this topic is about 1wire eeprom

Perhaps you should provide a link to where you have posted it. Not everybody reads every thread posted everywhere. The 1-wire devices tend to be about the same level of complexity as I2C with a few extra limitations, but are only available in a couple sizes and from a single vendor. If you only need 1K or so to identify a board you should be able to get it going easily. We are trying to steer you towards I2C because they are far more popular and if your project needs change, you won't have a lot of options. Not to mention your next project. I2C is easy and works well in PBP, but hey it's your project. You are less likely to find a code example if you need one for 1-wire, that's all.
