Active1,506 in stock

Overview

The ADS1115LIYCJR is an ultra-small, 16-bit precision delta-sigma ADC featuring four single-ended or two differential input channels. This converter integrates a programmable gain amplifier (PGA), a low-drift voltage reference, and an I2C interface, making it a highly integrated solution for precision measurements in space-constrained designs.

Why Choose This Part

This ADC offers a high level of integration with its internal PGA and voltage reference, reducing the external component count. Its extremely low 1.2uA sleep current and 2V minimum supply voltage make it highly efficient for low-power, battery-backed applications.

Applications

Supply-Voltage Monitoring
Utilizes the high-resolution ADC and internal MUX to monitor multiple power rails in battery-operated systems.
Current Measurement
Measures voltage drops across shunt resistors using the differential input mode and PGA for low-side or high-side sensing.
Temperature Measurement
Interfaces with RTDs or thermistors to provide accurate thermal data for industrial or wearable devices.
Portable Instrumentation
Small DSBGA footprint and 150uA operating current are ideal for handheld measurement devices.

Getting Started

To evaluate this part, use an I2C-capable microcontroller like an ESP32 or STM32 and pull the ADDR pin to GND, VDD, SDA, or SCL to select one of four I2C addresses. Engineers should focus on proper decoupling of the VDD line and careful routing of the DSBGA package to maintain 16-bit signal integrity.
