This is a flexibly programmable database for storing information about a product,
piece of equipment, or person or for one-way counting down. Like all iButtons,
the DS1982 has a unique serial number for associating a digital address with
an object or person and a 1-Wire interface. The port interface provides both
the physical link and handles the communication protocols that enable the processor
to access iButton resources with simple commands.
The DS1982's particular feature is 1kbit user-programmable EPROM. The EPROM may
be programmed multiple times in incremental add-ons that change individual bits
from 1 to 0; alternatively, the entire 1kbit of memory can be programmed at once
and then write-protected. This count-down type of memory usage is useful for debit
tokens. By means of iButton accessories, the DS1982 can be mounted to make read/write
access convenient to the application.
