ESP32-DS18B20

Introduction

This is a ESP32-compatible C library for the Maxim Integrated DS18B20 Programmable Resolution 1-Wire Digital Thermometer device.

It supports multiple devices on the same 1-Wire bus.

It is written and tested for the ESP-IDF environment, using the xtensa-esp32-elf toolchain (gcc version 5.2.0).

Features

This library includes:

• External power supply mode (parasitic mode not yet supported).
• Static (stack-based) or dynamic (malloc-based) memory model.
• No globals - support any number of 1-Wire buses simultaneously.
• 1-Wire device detection and validation, including search for multiple devices on a single bus.
• Addressing optimisation for a single (solo) device on a bus.
• 1-Wire bus operations including multi-byte read and write operations.
• CRC checks on ROM code and temperature data.
• Programmable temperature measurement resolution (9, 10, 11 or 12-bit resolution).
• Temperature conversion and retrieval.
• Separation of conversion and temperature retrieval to allow for simultaneous conversion across multiple devices.

Roadmap

The following features are anticipated but not yet implemented:

• Documented examples.
• Concurrency support (multiple tasks accessing devices on the same bus).
• Alarm support.
• EEPROM support.
• Parasitic power support.
• FreeRTOS event-based example.
