just a comment this forum is very usefull however it could be great if
getting actual hook up diagrams values was not like pulling teeth i know some of the information is availabe in the listing but this is hard search for those of us that are into the actual connections diagrams
example using the ds1821 there is a couple of listings and some mention of the correct pullup but no diagrams \
believe this could go a long way for help
just a beginners thought
do appreicate the help
Well at the risk of sounding harsh, " PULLUP " Pulls UP, up to where? To the supply voltage. PULLDOWN pulls Down to Ground. There now you have a schematic. NOW, as to the value of those pullups. It depends upon what voltage you are using, what you want it to be, and how much current you want them to draw. OHMs law involved here. imagine an LED in series with a resistor.Quote:

General rules of thumb apply, many people use 10K resistors as port pullups a load of .0005 amp at 5 volts.
thanks for your responce
don't know whas occuring
but unable to get expected readings showing 213 c ds1821 using any of the programs above
thought it might have something to do with pullups usinga4.7 to vdd
i seem to be confused (not something new)
must have posted in wrong spot trying to use a ds1821
with a 877a and a osc of 20 did a search of this temp sensor
and there were a couple of examples tried them and one show no ds1820
the other gives poor reading 96 deg c or something else
am using a 4.7k res to vss
any help
sorry about the misplaced posting
I do not know, you might look at this thread, it looks like he is doing the same thing, as you.
dont see the thread your talking about
wrong place for this
however i am having problems with a dallas ds1821 temperature sensor
connected to a 16f877a pin rc2 with a 4.7 k pullup and running at 20 mhz
it is working but readings are incorrect fairly sure i am communicating

can someone check this thanks
update tried several programs for this chip
however none work ?
does the owin and owout require changes for 20 mhz
it the only thing i seem to have different
other than using a loader
help?!
