Temperature (DS18S20) component
A rugged temperature sensor allowing one or more sensors to be addressed and read. Capable of reading temperatures from -55 to +125 degrees C. Requires a One Wire component to perform the bus operations.

Examples
This example shows how to connect the DS18S20 component to the OneWire component and either select a specific device on the bus or scan through the devices on the bus collecting the temperature readings.
The temperature and serial number is output using a UART connection as is onboard a Arduino or ESP32 device.
