ADS1015L: ADC Data format/scale confirmation

Part Number: ADS1015L

Tool/software:

Hi Team,
I'm working on a new application, and I want to confirm that the ADS1015L, when in single-ended configuration, will only be able to use half of the full-scale input voltage, i.e., it will make the ADC an 11-bit ADC rather than a 12-bit ADC.
Best Regards,
Diego Abad

    Hi Diego,

    Apologies for the late response here.

    This understanding is correct. You will only be using half of the dynamic range of the ADC. You still have the same LSB size, just the entire 12-bit input range is not being used. 

    Regards,
