ADS1015IDGST datasheet by Texas Instruments

ADS1015IDGST Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum sampling rate of the ADS1015?
  The maximum sampling rate of the ADS1015 is 3300 samples per second (SPS) for a single channel, and 1500 SPS for multiple channels.
• How do I configure the gain settings on the ADS1015?
  The gain settings on the ADS1015 can be configured using the PGA (Programmable Gain Amplifier) bits in the Config Register. The gain can be set to 2/3, 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16.
• What is the purpose of the COMP pin on the ADS1015?
  The COMP pin is an analog comparator output that can be used to generate an interrupt when the analog input voltage exceeds a certain threshold. This can be useful for applications that require fast response to changes in the input signal.
• How do I calibrate the ADS1015?
  The ADS1015 does not require calibration in the classical sense. However, it is recommended to perform a system calibration to ensure accurate readings. This can be done by taking multiple readings with a known input voltage and adjusting the gain and offset accordingly.
• What is the power consumption of the ADS1015?
  The power consumption of the ADS1015 depends on the operating mode and the sampling rate. In continuous conversion mode, the typical current consumption is around 150 μA. In power-down mode, the typical current consumption is around 5 μA.
