You only really need two data wires to transfer a ton of data. Standards like UART, USB2, I2C, SPI, PS/2, CAN, RS232, SWD (an interface to program MCUs), RS485, DMX, and many others, all are a ...
Maxim has introduced a chip to interface devices equipped with I2C or SPI bus connections to its ‘1-wire’ bus. Called DS28E18, it is intended to knock cost out of networks that connecting I2C and SPI ...
Figure 1 shows a typical converter schematic. The I2C bus is connected to PIN5 and PIN6, and the SPI bus is connected to PIN9, PIN10, PIN11, and PIN12. PIN8 is used to control the transmission ...
