General Description
The DS1990A serial number iButton
®
is a rugged data
carrier that serves as an electronic registration number
for automatic identification. Data is transferred serially
through the 1-Wire
®
protocol, which requires only a sin-
gle data lead and a ground return. Every DS1990A is
factory lasered with a guaranteed unique 64-bit regis-
tration number that allows for absolute traceability. The
durable stainless-steel iButton package is highly resis-
tant to environmental hazards such as dirt, moisture,
and shock. Its compact coin-shaped profile is self-
aligning with mating receptacles, allowing the DS1990A
to be used easily by human operators. Accessories
enable the DS1990A iButton to be mounted on almost
any object, including containers, pallets, and bags.
