DS2484 I2C to 1-Wire converter ... In theory, there's a lot of 1-Wire devices out there, but in reality almost everyone uses 1-Wire for DS18b20 temperature sensors. the long wire lengths and ease of 'chaining' by sharing a single bus wire makes it perfectly fine for this purpose.

you can bitbang 1Wire on most microcontrollers, and some SBCs like Raspberry Pi have kernel module support. (learn.adafruit.com/adafruits-ra...) But there might be chips without the 1-Wire capability, or maybe you want to use 1-Wire devices on your desktop computer or other SBC with I2C but no 1W.
