Who needs a new ADC converter? We’ve just released the ADC 8 click - a high precision, low-power, 16-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) based around the ADS1115 IC.
It is capable of sampling signals on four single-ended or two differential input channels.
Although the ADS1115 cannot use an external reference, it incorporates a low-drift programmable voltage reference, along with the programmable gain amplifier (PGA).
The ADC 8 click is an excellent choice for various instrumentation applications, due to its allowing great flexibility in terms of the input signal level. It can sample signals from ±256 mV, up to 6.144 V, allowing a very high precision for a wide range of input signals.
The ADS1115 can operate either in continuous or in a single-shot mode. While operating in a single-shot mode, the current consumption is significantly reduced, since the ADS1115 powers down after each conversion.
The ADC 8 click is perfectly suited for applications such as:
- portable instrumentation applications
- battery voltage and current monitoring
- analog sensor output conversion, etc.
