ADS1115 Module

Since Origin / Contributor Maintainer Source
2017-04-24 fetchbot fetchbot ads1115.c

This module provides access to the ADS1115 (16-Bit) and ADS1015 (12-Bit) analog-to-digital converters. Other chips from the same family (ADS1113, ADS1114, ADS1013 and ADS1014) are likely to work. Missing hardware features will be silently ignored.

This module supports multiple devices connected to I²C bus. The devices of different types can be mixed. The addressing of ADS family allows for maximum of 4 devices connected to the same I²C bus.

!!! caution

The **ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS** for all analog inputs are `0.3V to VDD+0.3V` referred to GND.

adc2 = ads1115.ads1115(id, ads1115.ADDR_SDA)

ads1115.reset()

Reset all devices connected to I²C interface.

Syntax

ads1115.reset()

Parameters

none

Returns

nil

Example

local id, alert_pin, sda, scl = 0, 7, 6, 5

ADS Device

ads1115.device:read()

Gets the result stored in the register of a previously issued conversion, e.g. in continuous mode or with a conversion ready interrupt.

Syntax

volt, volt_dec, raw, sign = device:read()

Parameters

none

Returns

  • volt voltage in mV (see note below)
  • volt_dec voltage decimal in uV (see note below)
  • adc raw adc register value
  • sign sign of the result (see note below)

!!! note

If using float firmware then `volt` is a floating point number, `volt_dec` and `sign` are nil. On an integer firmware, the final value has to be concatenated from `volt`, `volt_dec` and `sign`. On integer firmware `volt` and `volt_dec` are always positive, sign can be `-1`, `0`, `1`.

Example

local id, alert_pin, sda, scl = 0, 7, 6, 5
i2c.setup(id, sda, scl, i2c.SLOW)
ads1115.reset()
adc1 = ads1115.ads1115(id, ads1115.ADDR_GND)

-- continuous mode
adc1:setting(ads1115.GAIN_6_144V, ads1115.DR_128SPS, ads1115.SINGLE_0, ads1115.CONTINUOUS)

volt, volt_dec, adc, sign = ads1:read()
print(volt, volt_dec, adc, sign)

local function comparator(level, when)
	-- read adc result with read() when threshold reached
	gpio.trig(alert_pin)
	volt, volt_dec, adc, sign = ads1:read()
	print(volt, volt_dec, adc, sign)
end
gpio.mode(alert_pin, gpio.INT)
gpio.trig(alert_pin, "both", comparator)

-- read adc result with read()
volt, volt_dec, adc, sign = ads1115:read()
print(volt, volt_dec, adc, sing)

-- format value in int build
if sign then
    -- int build
    print(string.format("%s%d.%03d mV", sign >= 0 and "+" or "-", volt, volt_dec))
else
    -- float build
    -- just use V as it is
end
