DESCRIPTION
The DS9092 iButton Probe provides the electrical contact necessary for the transfer of data to and from
the DS19xx family of iButtons. The round probe shape provides a self-aligning interface that readily
matches the circular rim of the iButton’s MicroCan package. Metal contacts resist wear and are easy to
keep clean.
