 		 #176459 - Totally inadequate specification!
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Chico Magalhães said:
A code to test a DS18B20 IC!

That could mean anything from a trivial "does it work?" test - as in "a code that make some readings" - to something that fully verifies the operation of the chip for all operations over its entired specified operating range.

a code that make some readings on DS18B20

This can't be done with just code: what compiler/assembler will you use?
what hardware will you use?
Is the DS18B20 in "parasite power" mode or not?

How many is "some"?
How will the tester know whether to pass or fail the device under test?
etc, etc,...

All this thread is missing the point!

No, you are missing the point - and you will never get good answers if you don't realise how to post a good question!
