...my colleague Brian wants all of his house rewired. Also, we have been toying around with placing temperature sensors around our office (which we need to prove that our airconditioning doesn't work).
After some thought about power-line RF drivers and such, we decided on RS485-type network at a low data rate (16kbps approx). When used with appropriate slew-rate limited drivers (MAX487) you can have relatively long stubs on your network. The network is terminated on both ends with 100R, with two 1k resistors biasing the network into a '0' state.
The temperature sensors I've built use just four active components: a DS1621 I2C temperature sensor, a MAX487 line driver, a PIC 12C509 and a 78L05. We're planning to use four-wire cable at home (+12V, GND and the two differential data lines) and cat-5 network cabling in the office.
Below is the code for the RS485 protocol that we use. This code is heavily macro'd, but should be readable. If enough people show interest then I'll put the include files needed and the rest of the (not quite working) temperature sensor application up on my or Brian's home page.

; Two twisted pairs in cable, one for data and one for power/ground. Power is
; supplied as 9..12V as measured on the peripheral -- a transmitter may take
; approx. 120mA when using 100j terminators, or 104mA using 120j terminators
; in addition to any local power needs.
;
; The network protocol is designed to run on 4MHz 12-bit PICs at ~16kb/s in
; software. The longest packet takes less than 23ms to send, the shortest
; packet less than 2.5ms. CSMA is used to prevent two devices transmitting
; at the same time.
; Synchronous message format:
;
; - Start bit (100-250us duration)
; Peripherals try sending a start bit of 100-200us, then float the
; line, see if the line goes back to 0, and if it does, then drive
; it low for the remainder of the 20us, then start sending data.
; If the line is still driven to 1, then the peripheral will back
; off until the bus is idle for >100us, then try sending another
; start bit. The peripheral will try progressively longer start
; bits up to the limit of 200us. The host uses a 250us start bit
; to give it priority over all peripherals (this also means that
; most peripherals can ignore start bits <250us long).
; - Flags byte
; 7..6 - transfer direction:
; 00 - peripheral to host
; 01 - peer to peer (UNIM)
; 10 - host to peripheral
; 11 - reserved
; 5 - reserved
; 4..0 - data length
; - Peripheral or destination address byte or 255 for broadcast
(Flags<7..6>=10)
; - Optional source address byte (Flags<7..6>=01) (UNIM)
; - Command byte (Flags<7..6>=10) or status byte (Flags<7..6>=00)
; Command
; 0 - Are you there? (Returns up to 31 byte ID string)
; 1 - Data poll
; 2..255 - User defined commands
; Status
; 0 - OK
; 1 - CRC error
; 2 - Command error
; 3 - Parameter error
; 4 - No (more) data
; 5..254 - User defined errors
; 255 - Data broadcast
; - 0..31 data bytes
; - CRC-16 over Flags, Address and Data bytes

GEORGE R. FORSE Says:
Hello,James Newton replies: See: http://web.archive.org/web/20030212211144/www.falstaff.demon.co.uk/picres.html Franks site is no more, but thanks to the wayback...+
I would like to use the program, but don't have the macros. When I try
to download them from sites that indicate where to download them (Google),
I am not able to access them I have spent many hours trying to find them.
Please advise. TIA George
