ADS1115IRUGR in TI ADS1115 / ADS1118 ADC Family
The ADS1115IRUGR belongs to the Texas Instruments ADS1115 family of ultra-small, low-power, 16-bit precision analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). Utilizing a sigma-delta architecture, these devices feature an onboard low-drift voltage reference and an oscillator. Designed for space-constrained applications, this specific variant uses the X2QFN package. It is primarily used for sensor measurement and system monitoring where high resolution and ease of integration over I2C are required in battery-operated or portable equipment.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within the ADS1115/ADS1118 sub-families primarily differ by communication interface, resolution, and integrated thermal sensors. While the ADS1115 uses I2C with four selectable addresses, the ADS1118 utilizes SPI and includes a high-accuracy internal temperature sensor. Package options also vary from standard VSSOP to the ultra-thin X2QFN seen in the RUGR variant, impacting thermal performance and PCB footprint.
