the seven available commands. The protocol for these memory function commands is described in Figure
10. All data is read and written least significant bit first.
DS1921H/Z BLOCK DIAGRAM Figure 1
PARASITE POWER
The block diagram (Figure 1) shows the parasite-powered circuitry. This circuitry “steals” power
whenever the IO input is high. IO will provide sufficient power as long as the specified timing and
voltage requirements are met. The advantages of parasite power are two-fold: 1) by parasiting off this
input, lithium is conserved, and 2) if the lithium is exhausted for any reason, the ROM may still be read
normally.
64-BIT LASERED ROM
Each DS1921 contains a unique ROM code that is 64 bits long. The first eight bits are a 1-Wire family
code. The next 36 bits are a unique serial number. The next 12 bits, called temperature range code, allow
distinguishing the DS1921H and DS1921Z from each other and from other DS1921 versions. The last
eight bits are a CRC of the first 56 bits. See Figure 3 for details. The 1-Wire CRC is generated using a
polynomial generator consisting of a shift register and XOR gates as shown in Figure 4. The polynomial
is X
