[wxsig] Family Codes and ds2438 (Fixed)

[Pedro Motilla]

Hi Ted, I think that part should work for the first time.

I made the mistake of buying a non-original part as far as in my
favorite suppliers it was not available the ds2438z, so looked at ebay
and found a "supposed" 2438z, maybe I could have a look on digikey,
anyway, I had a nice time fixing the issue.

Regards.

Pedro.

I have a question for you - I see the DS2438Z is available from DigiKey, is this the part you used?  I know you said the DS2438 is getting hard to find, I wanted to learn what I could about which versions work and which do not.
