2 Channel A-D (OWAD2)


Description:
This 1-wire card uses the DS2438 IC to provide four separate functions. The first function is temperature measurement. The second function uses an A-D channel to measure the +5V used to power the DS2438 1-wire device. The third function is one single ended A-D input in the range of 0 to +10.23 volts. The fourth function is a differential A-D input in the range of +/-250mV.

Differential A-D Channel:
Connect the A-D channel 2 + input to common. Now connect your sensor low, negative or common side to A-D channel 2 -. You may add a low pass filter to this negative pin by adding up to a 100K ohm resistor in series with your sensor common lead and connecting a 1.0uF capacitor between channel 2 - and Common to complete the low pass filter. Connect your sensor high, positive or "signal" lead to A-D channel 2 +. Since the + side is connected to the 1-wire common your sensor must be "floating".
