ADS1118 Class

Constructor

Ads1118(int CS_pin)

Methods

• .begin(void)
• adsRead(int port)returns the floating point representation of the voltage at the port. Macros for the different ports are defined in the header file and are:
  • DIF01
  • DIF23
  • AIN0
  • AIN1
  • AIN2
  • AIN3
• readTemp(void) is being debugged and may or may not work.
• setGain(int GainSet)
• selfTest(void) the method returns1 if there is an error communicating with the device. This may be due to a wiring problem or other SPI error.

Parameters

There no public parameters of interest.

Usage

Clone repository into your Arduino libraries folder (typically ~/Arduino/libraries/)

See the examples folder.

Notes

None yet.

Further Work

1. Temperature readings
2. Low power mode (current it is set to constantly sample)
