FEATURES
§ 4096 bits of SRAM
§ Four 32-bit, read-only counters
§ Active-low external trigger inputs for two of
the counters with on-chip debouncing
compatible with reed and Wiegand switches
§ Unique, factory-lasered and tested 64-bit
registration number (8-bit family code + 48-
bit serial number + 8-bit CRC tester) assures
absolute traceability because no two parts are
alike
§ Memory partitioned into 16 256-bit pages in
for packetizing data
§ 256-bit scratchpad with strict read/write
protocols ensures integrity of data transfer
§ On-chip 16-bit CRC generator for
safeguarding data transfers
§ Built-in multidrop controller ensures
compatibility with other MicroLAN products
§ Directly connects to a single port pin of a
microprocessor and communicates at up to
16.3kbits per second
§ Overdrive mode boosts communication speed
to 142kbits per second
§ 8-bit family code specifies device
communication requirements to reader

DESCRIPTION
The DS2423 1-Wire® RAM with Counters is a fully static, read/write memory for battery operation in a
low-cost, six-lead TSOC, surface-mount package. The memory is organized as 16 pages of 256 bits each.
In addition, the device has four counters, two of them with external trigger inputs called A and B. Each of
the counters is associated with a memory page. A counter without external trigger input increments each
time data is written to the page it is associated with (write cycle counter). The counters triggered by
inputs A and B, respectively, increment with every low-going pulse on their input. All counters are read-
only. They are automatically cleared to 0 when the battery is connected.
