Dear PicList members I have once read the DS1820 with success, but recently tried it again... I get a presence pulse as it should and when I ask the Dallas chip for a temperature reading it gives me a constant reading of 16 Deg C no matter what I do... In fact I am using exactly the same source code as last time and my connections are correct. Can someone help before I use I cutting tourch to test the Dallas range between 2000 and 3000 Deg C.
