The kind you would find on a printer ink cartridge etc, and it is usually used for keeping track of a number (counting). Anyway, i want to read the data off of it, and i have it setup on a circuit already that i can get to the pins easily. Just need to know how i am going to read the data / program it.
Right.. you're not using a micro then... I don't think there will be a library for one wire in Java.....You'll need to use a microprocessor and a link to the PC to read it.
**broken link removed** and i hooked up a usb connection today to my breadboard. Now, like i said im new to this, so since i have that library would i still need to use a micro processor?
Thanks again for all of your help so far!
I hope you didn't think i was trying to be rude. Anyway, i have found a programmer at radioshack that i think is for avr chips, or something. Either way, if i pick up a programmer do you think i can hook in my pins and use that? If so, that would make my life a lot easier.
