OneWireNg
This is an 1-wire service library, intended as an alternative for the classic OneWire library. The library provides basic 1-wire services (reset, search, touch, read, write, parasite powering) and may serve for further work while interfacing with various 1-wire devices.
Features
-
All bus activities are performed respecting open-drain character of the 1-wire protocol.
During normal 1-wire activities, the master MCU GPIO controlling the bus is never set high (providing direct voltage source on the bus) instead the GPIO is switched to the reading mode causing the high state seen on the bus via the pull-up resistor.
-
1-wire touch support.
The 1-wire touch may substantially simplify complex bus activities consisting of write-read pairs by combining them into a single touch activity. See examples for details.
-
Parasite powering support.
The 1-wire bus may be powered directly by the master MCU GPIO or via a switching transistor controlled by a dedicated MCU GPIO. More details below.
-
Search filtering.
Search algorithm allows efficient filtering basing on a selected set of family codes. Maximum size of the set is configurable by
CONFIG_MAX_SRCH_FILTERS
. -
Overdrive (high-speed) mode support.
The overdrive mode enables speed up the 1-wire communication by a factor of 10. Only limited number of 1-wire devices support this mode (e.g. DS2408, DS2431).
-
Dallas temperature sensors drivers.
Generic Dallas thermometers and MAX31850/MAX31851 drivers for handling Dallas thermometers and thermocouples. See examples for details.
-
OneWire compatibility interface.
The interface allows effortless switch into OneWireNg for projects using OneWire library. See below for details.
-
Clear and flexible architecture.
The code architecture allows fast and easy porting for new Arduino platforms or even usage of core part of the library outside the Arduino environment.
Usage
Refer to examples
directory for usage details.
For API specification refer to sources inline documentation (mainly
OneWireNg
class). For convenience it's possible to generate
HTML/LaTeX Doxygen documentation by issuing
doxygen
from the main library directory. The documentation will be placed in
extras/doc
.
File src/OneWireNg_Config.h
contains parameters
configuring the library functionality. See the file for more details.
ESP-IDF (incl. ESP8266 RTOS SDK v3)
Preferred way to add OneWireNg as a library for Espressif ESP-IDF
framework is to add it as a git submodule located at project's components
subdirectory:
git submodule add -- https://github.com/pstolarz/OneWireNg components/OneWireNg
Next checkout specific library VERSION
:
cd components/OneWireNg
git checkout VERSION
While added the library shall be configured via ESP-IDF native configuration
(see Kconfig
for details). There is no need to directly change
OneWireNg_Config.h
configuration file.
Mbed OS
NOTE: The library usage for Mbed OS framework is experimental and was not tested.
To add OneWireNg as a library for Mbed OS project use (for specific VERSION
):
mbed add https://github.com/pstolarz/OneWireNg#VERSION
While added the library shall be configured via Mbed OS native configuration
(see mbed_lib.json
for details). There is no need to directly
change OneWireNg_Config.h
configuration file.

Overdrive mode
When configured with CONFIG_OVERDRIVE_ENABLED
the library supports 1-wire
overdrive mode. The mode requires very strict and short timings while bit-banging
data on the 1-wire bus, therefore is vulnerable for any inaccuracies.
While configured with CONFIG_BITBANG_DELAY_CCOUNT
the mode is confirmed to
work on the following platforms and CPU frequencies:
- AVR
- Arduino UNO (ATmega328P); 16MHz.
- ESP8266
- WemOS D1; 160,80MHz.
- ESP32
- ESP32-WROOM-32; 240,160,80,40,20MHz
- ESP32-S2-WROVER; 240,160,80,40,20,10MHz
- ESP32-C3-32S-Kit; 240,160MHz (other freqs not tested)
Parasite powering
The library supports two modes of providing a direct voltage source on the 1-wire bus for parasitically powered slaves:
-
If platform's GPIO set to the high-state (in the output mode) is able to serve as a voltage source, the library may leverage this trait. The master MCU GPIO controlling the 1-wire bus is set to the high-state powering the bus when additional energy is needed for connected slaves.
-
If platform's GPIO is of an open-drain type, then a GPIO is not able to directly serve as a voltage source powering the connected slaves. In this case an additional switching transistor is leveraged to control providing an external power source to the bus and is controlled by a dedicated power-control-GPIO as presented on the following figure.
To enable the second mode the library needs to be configured with
CONFIG_PWR_CTRL_ENABLED
.
Choice between the two types is made by selecting appropriate constructor of a platform class. For example:
#include "OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform.h"
static OneWireNg *ow = NULL;
void setup()
{
/*
* Macro-defines used:
*
* OW_PIN: GPIO pin number used for bit-banging 1-wire bus.
* PWR_CTRL_PIN: power-control-GPIO pin number (optional).
*/
#ifdef PWR_CTRL_PIN
# ifndef CONFIG_PWR_CTRL_ENABLED
# error "CONFIG_PWR_CTRL_ENABLED needs to be enabled"
# endif
// switching transistor powering
ow = new OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform(OW_PIN, PWR_CTRL_PIN);
#else
// GPIO bit-bang powering
ow = new OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform(OW_PIN);
#endif
// ...
// write array of bytes and power the bus subsequently;
// the bus is powered until explicit unpowering or next 1-wire bus activity
ow->writeBytes(bytes, bytes_len, true);
// wait for connected slaves to fulfill their task requiring extra powering
delay(750);
// unpower the bus explicitly
ow->powerBus(false);
}
configures 1-wire service to work in one of the above modes.
1-wire stability and parasite powering
Parasite powered slaves are less stable (more error prone) than regularly powered devices. If possible, try to avoid parasitically powered setups.
For legacy AVR platforms the library need to be configured with
CONFIG_BUS_BLINK_PROTECTION
to make the parasitic mode working.
Architecture details
OneWireNg
The class provides public interface for 1-wire service. Object of this class isn't constructed directly rather than casted from a derived class object implementing platform specific details.
As an example:
#include "OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform.h"
static OneWireNg *ow = NULL;
void setup()
{
OneWireNg::Id id;
ow = new OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform(10);
ow->searchReset();
while (ow->search(id) == OneWireNg::EC_MORE) {
// 'id' contains 1-wire address of a connected slave
}
}
creates 1-wire service interface for current platform and performs search on the bus. The bus is controlled by MCU pin number 10. Alternatively it is possible to use C++11 range loop to detect slaves connected to the 1-wire bus:
#include "OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform.h"
static OneWireNg *ow = NULL;
void setup()
{
ow = new OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform(10);
for (const auto& id: *ow) {
// 'id' contains 1-wire address of a connected slave
}
}
NOTE: During creation of an OneWireNg
object, the class constructor performs
various platform specific activities required to setup the 1-wire service. For
this reason the OneWireNg
object may be created only when the platform itself
is fully started-up and initialized, e.g. in setup()
method but not as a
global variable initialized during its creation.
Additionally it is strongly recommended to maintain single OneWireNg
service
object across all 1-wire activities handled by this service on a specific bus.
Of course it is perfectly possible to created multiple OneWireNg
services
handling different 1-wire buses.
Memory allocation caveat
If heap allocation is inadvisable use in-place new
operator:
#include "OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform.h"
ALLOC_ALIGNED static uint8_t OneWireNg_buf[sizeof(OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform)];
static OneWireNg *ow = NULL;
void setup()
{
ow = new (OneWireNg_buf) OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform(10);
// ...
}
or use Placeholder
utility template to store OneWireNg
specialized object:
#include "OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform.h"
#include "utils/Placeholder.h"
static Placeholder<OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform> _ow;
static OneWireNg *ow = NULL;
void setup()
{
// initialize the placeholded object by in-place new
ow = new (&_ow) OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform(10);
// ...
}
OneWireNg_BitBang
The class is derived from OneWireNg
and implements the 1-wire interface basing
on GPIO bit-banging. Object of this class isn't constructed directly rather than
the class is intended to be inherited by a derived class providing protected
interface implementation for low level GPIO activities (set mode, read, write).
OneWireNg_PLATFORM
Are family of classes providing platform specific implementation (PLATFORM
states for a platform name e.g. OneWireNg_ArduinoAVR
provides AVR implementation
for Arduino environment).
The platform classes implement OneWireNg
interface directly (via direct
OneWireNg
class inheritance) or indirectly (e.g. GPIO bit-banging implementation
bases on OneWireNg_BitBang
, which provides GPIO bit-banging 1-wire service
implementation leaving the platform class to provide platform specific low-level
GPIO activities details).
Platform classes have a public constructor allowing to create 1-wire service for a particular platform (see above).
NOTE: For the convenience there has been provided OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform.h
header which tries to detect platform the compilation is proceeded and:
- include proper platform class header,
- assign
OneWireNg_CurrentPlatform
macro-define to the detected platform class.
OneWire compatibility
OneWire
class provides compatibility interface between
OneWireNg and OneWire library.
The main purpose of this class is to provide fast and effortless mechanism for
developers experiencing issues with OneWire and eager to give OneWireNg a try.
Finally, it's strongly recommended to switch into OneWireNg interface rather
than stay with the OneWire due to OneWireNg's more mature and feature-rich API
(search filtering, OD mode, touch support).
DallasTemperature library
As an example of usage of the compatibility interface there has been created the following fork of DallasTemperature library ported with OneWireNg.
