What this bridge does on the bus
The DS2482S-800+T&R acts as a protocol translator, converting an I²C master command stream into the 1-Wire® timing and signalling needed to communicate with up to eight 1-Wire slave devices on a single bus. With a supply current of 750 µA at either 3.3 V or 5 V, it adds negligible load to the I²C rail — important for power-budgeted designs where every microamp counts.
Supply voltage flexibility and temperature grade
Rated for both 3.3 V and 5 V supply rails, the DS2482S-800+T&R bridges systems where the I²C master runs at one voltage and the 1-Wire bus needs the other — no external level shifter required.
Active lifecycle — no end-of-life risk
ROHS3 compliant — no exemption-based solder restrictions.
