Dear Forum, I was curious to find out how to read the DS18B20 temperature sensor without using the wellknown and easy-to-use READTEMP command. So I took the data sheet and started reading. However, I gave up because I did not understand most of it (I did understand the data sheet for the ADS1115 and MPU6050 after reading them three times, but the DS18B20 clearly is beyond my level of understanding.
And searching the Forum did not help, everyone working with the sensor simply uses "readtemp".
Please note: this is NOT a request to the forum to start working to solve this question (Although the Forum is always very helpfull!).
It is merely a request to those people (if existing) who, also out of curiosity, tried to unravel this problem and succeeded where I failed: if you managed to write a Picaxe program to read the DS18B20, without using "readtemp", would you be so kind to share it with me, or at least "lift a tip of the curtain"as we say in the Netherlands?
Thank you very much in advance,
Janjor.
