Because of the Thanksgiving holiday in the U.S., TI E2E™ design support forum responses may be delayed from November 25 through December 2. Thank you for your patience.
Part Number: INA333 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OPA2320 , ADS1131 Thank you for the forum. I want to make a strain gauge interface. I seem to find oodles of different devices to do this. For my use I already have a micro with a ADC having a good 16…
the planned ble weigh scale is to be a simple single chip device. choose any load cell with sensitivity of 2mv/V, analog front end just use the on-chip opamp and ADC, with opamp set to work with gain of 500(so that the signal to Vref ratio will be 1:1…
Hi Bob and thanks for your precious help,
The ADS1131 is an 18-bit ADC, but anyway, under my circumstances, you think that 16bit is OK?
Best regards,
Theo
Thank you for your advice Bob,
Such a nice chip, but VERY expensive. I think i will take a try on the ADS1131. Resonable price with nice performance and very low noise. If i happen to need a bigger sample rate i will take a try with INA333 (i have couple…
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1231 , ADS1131 Hi there,
I use the ADS1231-1131 in a battery powered application (4xAAbatteries = 4,5V) in a ratiometric wiring.
During measurements there are no voltage peaks or noise. So I decide to no to use a seperate…
Jose,
As Chris has mentioned there are several variables that are a part of choosing the correct dataconverter. Some possible choices for load cells are ADS1230 (20-bit), ADS1232 (24-bit), ADS1131 (16-bit) and ADS1231 (24-bit). All of these devices are…
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS1230 , ADS1231 , ADS1231REF , ADS1131 , ADS1232 , ADS1234 , ADS1130 I'm comparing ADS1230 with ADS1231, and in 1231's datasheet there seems to be no information on how to perform Offset Calibration. Furthermore, in ADS1231REF…
Hi Sheldon,
As this device is pin controlled, there is really not much to the communication. After each conversion you read the data. We do have some code from the ADS1231REF reference design that is available on the ftp site. This code is a little complicated…
