About DS28E01 Chip The DS28E01-100 is a 1-Wire® chip that features a unique 64-bit ROM registration number and a strong authentication engine, providing a secure method for establishing a root-of-trust in embedded systems. It operates in 1-Wire protocol, which allows
AT88SC0104 Compared with AT88SC1608 and AT88SC153, the most prominent feature of AT88SC0104 is that all transmitted data are transmitted in cipher text, which ensures the security of stored data. ATMEL Corporation has now recommended that the AT88SC1608 and AT88SC153 be
What is Disassembly? MCU disassembly is to decompile the BIN file or HEX file read from the MCU into an assembly language that engineers can understand. Disassembly is often required when there is no source file and the program needs
If you’re a car enthusiast, you’re probably always looking for ways to get the most out of your vehicle. The MM3 Tuner is one of the best ways to do just that. It is a device that allows you to
About DS2431 Chips The DS2431 is a 1-Wire® EEPROM device that is made up of four memory sections, each one having 256 bits. A scratchpad of eight bytes is used to store data, and the data is then copied to
An integrated circuit chip that integrates a central processing unit CPU, RAM, ROM, I/O ports, and an interrupt system is known as the single-chip microcomputer. The microcomputers became popular in the 1970s and 1980s due to the increasing power of
One Time Programmable (OTP) memory is non-volatile, meaning it retains its data when powered off. It is a special type of read-only memory that can only be programmed or written to once. Once this memory has been programmed or written,
