ADS8578S: Setting up PGA

Part Number: ADS8578S

Hello,

I am trying to find is the ADS8578S data sheet information about setting the gain of the integrated PGA, and I cannot find any information on it. How do I set the gain of the Programmable Gain Amplifier?

Thanks,

Eric.

  • Hi Eric,

    Welcome to the E2E forum. 

    The Gain on this ADC is automatically set when you configuring the input range by setting the RANGE pin to high or low:

    • If this pin is set to logic high, then the device is configured to operate in the ±10-V input range for all input channels.
    • If this pin is set to logic low, then all input channels operate in the ±5-V input range.

    Please see the section 8.4.1.2 Range (Input) in the datasheet..

    Regards,

    Dale
