entire electrical system of automotive vehicles. The correct implementation of the wire harness represents one of the most expensive and technically challenging aspects of vehicle design. This paper presents the design and simulation of a full custom ASIC conjoining two robust, serial protocols, 1 – Wire® and CAN, that can provide a rugged, reliable communications backbone for wearable medical technology devices as well as advanced vehicular technologies. There are numerous devices that use either CAN or 1 – Wire® for communication. By conjoining these two serial bus protocols this will allow data exchange between an almost unlimited number of devices. There are many benefits to the use of serial communication for wearable medical technology and advanced vehicular communications. First, serial communication allows the transfer of data between two computers, two master devices, a master and a slave device, etc. Therefore, it is very flexible. Serial communication also allows one to interface with a PC either during development and/or in the field. Another major benefit of serial protocols is the low pin count; communication can be established with just one I/O pin, compared to eight or more for parallel communications. Finally, most physiological characteristics are monitored at relatively slow rates allowing for lower speed communication protocols to be effective. This makes serial communications ideal for wearable medical devices. The remainder of this dissertation is organized as follows: Chapter 2 describes the 1 – Wire® communication protocol, Chapter 3 describes the CAN communication protocol, Chapter discusses the challenges of interfacing CAN and 1 – Wire® communication protocols, Chapter 5 describes the interface of CAN and 1 – Wire® communication protocols, Chapter 6 3
describes the 1 – Wire® and CAN combined system prototype implementation, and Chapter 7 discusses the conclusions reached from this research and future directions of this work. 4
