Quick Design Document for 1-wire bus
|
||
|
|
||
|
In new bus terms, 1-wire devices are attached to 1-wire buses (ow)
|
||
|
which are attached to a one wire bridge (owc).
|
||
|
|
||
|
The implementation follows the terminology used in the Maxim AN927
|
||
|
Application note which defines the 1-wire bus as implemented for the
|
||
|
iButton product. This is considered to be the canonical definition of
|
||
|
the 1-wire bus. This means that the 1-wire bridge will implement the
|
||
|
owll(9) interface. ow is one wire. ll is for Link Level to mirror the ISO
|
||
|
stack terminology used by AN927. The 1-wire bus is implemented in the ow(4)
|
||
|
device, which implements the own(9) interface (n for network, the layer
|
||
|
described in the AN927). The presentation layer and above is the
|
||
|
responsibility of the client device drivers to implement.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Client drivers may only call the own(9) interface. The ow(4) driver
|
||
|
calls the owll(9) interface and implements the own(9).
