FEATURES

 Simple, low-cost metal stampings form a

read/write probe for the iButton family

 Probe guides the entry of the iButton

 iButton slides over the surface to self-clean

contacts

 Accessible shallow probe cavity simplifies

removal of debris such as mud

 Flexible design supports panel mount or

hand-grip mount with optional tactile

feedback

 Bright tarnish-resistant metal surface provides

millions of operations

 Panel-mount probe, pre-wired for easy

installation

 Hand-grip probe mates to RJ-11 jack for

quick installation

 DS9092 probes both F3 and F5 cans. Extra

consideration is required for operation with

the F3 can. The attachment method of the F3

can must not interfere with the cavity

dimensions of the probe, otherwise the data

signal will not make contact.

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTION

The DS9092 iButton Probe provides the electrical contact necessary for the transfer of data to and from

the DS19xx family of i

Buttons. The round probe shape provides a self-aligning interface that readily

matches the circular rim of the iButton’s MicroCan package. Metal contacts resist wear and are easy to

keep clean.

The DS9092 is available with a flat faceplate (standard) or with optional tactile feedback. The center

contact of the standard reader has no moving parts, making this a more rugged interface for harsh

DS9092

DS9092 environments. This type of probe is best suited for designs where the iButton is brought into contact with the reader. The tactile feedback probe is ideal for situations where the iButton is stationary and the movable reader is brought in contact with it. Both types of probes are available in a panel-mount version. The tactile feedback probe is also available in a grip-mount version. The panel-mount probes are fastened behind the panel with a push-on type spring nut.
