I am an engineer with a small business providing commercial & industrial energy efficiency & sub-monitoring services.
As part of the sub-monitoring system I have of a 1-wire-bus temperature logging system. However the circuit is not capable of driving the signal when the circuit is extended 100m using Cat-5 cable.
I was wondering if HSBNE has a member who is interested in electronics capable of & willing – for expenses and a reasonable fee - to develop an opto-coupler, isolator or alternate circuit to improve a circuit’s transmission capability for me?
Alternatively, if there is anyone out there who can help me (or point me to a person/organization/entity who can help me) it would be most appreciated.
Thanks.
