Product Overview

The ADS1013, ADS1014, and ADS1015 devices (ADS101x) are precision, low-power, 12-bit, I2Ccompatible, analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) offered in an ultra-small, leadless, X2QFN-10 package, and a VSSOP-10 package. The ADS101x devices incorporate a low-drift voltage reference and an oscillator. The ADS1014 and ADS1015 also incorporate a programmable gain amplifier (PGA) and a digital comparator. These features, along with a wide operating supply range, make the ADS101x well suited for power- and space-constrained, sensor measurement applications.

 

This blog will introduce ADS1015 systematically from its features, pinout to its specifications, applications, also including ADS1015 datasheet and so much more.

 

ADS1015 Video Description: This is a video on the ADS1015. The ADS1015 is an ADC which resolves to 12 bits of resolution, so providing 4096 counts to resolve to. 2048 of those are minus and 2048 are plus values. The ADC also includes a powerful and useful built in gain controller which can be programmed using Arduino Studio!
