The iButton is an extremely robust method for logging data in harsh and sensitive environments.

When you attach a tiny Thermochron (DS1922L) anywhere on your shipment, you will know whether the temperature environment changed during transit and by precisely how much. Using Thermochrons, companies are discovering that their quality goes up while their operating costs come down.

If you’re shipping highly sensitive products like pharmaceuticals, the shift of even a few degrees can mean the difference between delivering a safe, effective product and rendering it completely useless.

Refrigeration/freezer systems that malfunction can cause significant financial loss if left unchecked. But temperature can be easily monitored by strategically placing Thermochrons or Hygrochrons (DS1923) throughout the areas which require accurate, yet potentially highly dispersed monitoring.

When developing an iButton solution for an application, you can consider many complementary technologies. Bar codes, RFID tags, magnetic stripe, prox, and smart cards are some of the possibilities. Unlike bar codes and magnetic stripe cards, most of the iButtons can be read and be written to.

In addition, the communication rate and product breadth of iButtons goes well beyond the simple memory products typically available with RFID. As for durability, the thin plastic of smart cards is no match for the strength of the stainless-steel-clad iButton.
