#138889 - sure, but
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I thought so, but I've just read this:

Would you trust a resistive pull-up bus for distances use? YES 30 ohms (the cc impedance) does make it possible, but I would/will always go differential if distance beyond a few meters is involved.

Now one comment on this: if the choice is between the high impedance std IIC/Dallas 1 wire/buffered IIC the choice is clear.

I can see the buffered IIC used in some slow data collection systems (e.g. temp sampling of freezers in a warehouse) where 'adding one is a matter of 'hooking onto the bus', however, I, personally would still use differential.
