Re: iButton

Mikro Basic has 1-wire library already implemented, so this isn't a problem.
The problems are the circuit and the PIC program...

Re: iButton

Micro Basic should have examples directory in program files/microbasic. There you will find whole ibutton application for easy pic development board. I am using micro C
and mikro C have example for ibutton.
