Added Free-running mode

This operating mode makes it possible to only use one processor pin (T1) for operation.

Downsides

  • The downside to using this mode is that it is potentially less stable than manually turning it on with an additional GPIO pin.
  • Potentially a longer fetch time for the temperature since it might have to re fetch the pulse train. Adding a maximum of 50% longer time compared to the regular modes.
  • Requires more power since the sensor is always on, regardless if your checking the temperature or not.

Advantages

  • Only requires a single pin of the processor i.e. the counter pin (T1).

Added MultiCast

This operating mode allows multiple NST1001 sensors to connect to the same timer input (T1).

Known issue.

The processor sometimes registers ~3 pulses (-50 C). It rarely happens but worth keeping in mind. I will try to fix this in the future, I'm releasing this now since this is such a rare problem.
