The LinkTH is a more intelligent 1-Wire adapter that is designed around getting data out rather than just manipulating the 1-Wire network. Previous 1-Wire interfaces such as the Dallas DS9097U required an intimate knowledge of the 1-Wire protocol and the sensors you want to address to get any useful data. With the LinkTH you just ask for it to report, or if you wish, set it to report at the interval of your choice.
The LinkTH uses the same hardware as the
Link45 and the same low level software for dealing with large and/or complex 1-Wire networks. The difference is in the simpler command set that makes direct use of the LinkTH practical and speeds application development for those who wish to write their own software.
