Has anyone tried to implement a 1-wire driver for Dallas/Maxim 1-Wire devices, in particular for a DS2502-E48 chip?
We are using a custom board based on the FreeScale Lite5200. We have added a DS2502-E48 chip to give us a unique MAC address on each board, instead of having to buy/manage a block of MAC addresses from IEEE.
I'm considering writing a standalone bit-banging application that u-boot can run to read and display the MAC address. The user could then use the display for the "setenv ethaddr" command. Would there be any way for the standalone program to modify the ethaddr environment variable directly?
Thanks,
