Working Principles

The DS28EC20P+T utilizes a single wire for communication and power. It follows the 1-Wire protocol, where data is transmitted by modulating the voltage on the DQ line. The device operates as a slave, responding to commands from a master device.

To read or write data, the master device sends specific commands along with the ROM ID of the DS28EC20P+T. The device then responds accordingly, allowing the transfer of data between the master and the EEPROM.
