SBAS444E May 2009 – December 2024 ADS1113 , ADS1114 , ADS1115
PRODUCTION DATA
The ADS1115 contains an input multiplexer (MUX), as shown in Figure 7-4. Either four single-ended or two differential signals can be measured. Additionally, AIN0 and AIN1 can be measured differentially to AIN3. The multiplexer is configured by bits MUX[2:0] in the Config register. When single-ended signals are measured, the negative input of the ADC is internally connected to GND by a switch within the multiplexer.
The ADS1113 and ADS1114 do not have an input multiplexer and can measure either one differential signal or one single-ended signal. For single-ended measurements, connect the AIN1 pin to GND externally. In subsequent sections of this data sheet, AINP refers to AIN0 and AINN refers to AIN1 for the ADS1113 and ADS1114.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) diodes connected to VDD and GND protect the ADS111x analog inputs. Keep the absolute voltage of any input within the range shown in Equation 3 to prevent the ESD diodes from turning on.
If the voltages on the input pins can potentially violate these conditions, use external Schottky diodes and series resistors to limit the input current to safe values (see the Absolute Maximum Ratings table). Overdriving an input on the ADS1115 can affect conversions taking place on other inputs. If overdriving an input is possible, clamp the signal with external Schottky diodes.
