DS1821 OPERATION EXAMPLE
In this example, the master device programs the DS1821 with T
L
= +10°C and T
H
= +40°C and verifies
that the data has been saved correctly. The master then programs the status/configuration register so that
the device will power-up in thermostat mode (T/R¯ = 1) and the thermostat output will have active high
polarity (POL = 1).
