DS18B20 with NUCLEO-F401RE

Wiring for the DS18B20 waterproof temperature probe on the NUCLEO-F401RE (STM32F401RE, 3.3 V logic), chosen with the same pin rules BoardPilot uses: default buses first, and no pins that are used for flash, USB, the debugger or booting.

Wiring

DS18B20 pin	Role	NUCLEO-F401RE pin	Notes
VDD	Power	3V3	Red wire
DQ	One-wire data	D2 (PA10)	Yellow (sometimes white) wire. Needs a 4.7 kΩ pull-up to 3.3 V
GND	Ground	GND	Black wire

Check before you power it on

Supply: 3.3 V from the 3V3 pin.

Test code (Arduino)

// Library: OneWire, DallasTemperature
#include <OneWire.h>
#include <DallasTemperature.h>

OneWire bus(PA10);  // needs a 4.7 kΩ pull-up from DQ to VDD
DallasTemperature sensors(&bus);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  sensors.begin();
  Serial.print("Sensors found: ");
  Serial.println(sensors.getDeviceCount());
}

void loop() {
  sensors.requestTemperatures();
  Serial.println(sensors.getTempCByIndex(0));
  delay(1000);
}

Arduino board: STMicroelectronics:stm32:Nucleo_64:pnum=NUCLEO_F401RE. Plug the USB cable into the mini-USB port on the ST-LINK end. No button press is needed.

Questions

Which NUCLEO-F401RE pins do I use for the DS18B20?

VDD → 3V3, DQ → D2 (PA10), GND → GND.

Does the DS18B20 work with the NUCLEO-F401RE at 3.3 V?

Yes: the DS18B20 runs at 3.3-5 V and the NUCLEO-F401RE uses 3.3 V signals, so no level shifting is needed.

BoardPilot checks this wiring in 3D as you build it, and finds crossed or missing wires on the real board.
