Temperature (DS18S20) component

A rugged temperature sensor allowing one or more sensors to be addressed and read. Capable of reading temperatures from -55 to +125 degrees C. Requires a One Wire component to perform the bus operations.

Detailed description

No detailed description exists yet for this component

Examples

This example shows how to connect the DS18S20 component to the OneWire component and either select a specific device on the bus or scan through the devices on the bus collecting the temperature readings.

The temperature and serial number is output using a UART connection as is onboard a Arduino or ESP32 device.
