ssory for full qustion, I'm not familiar with sigma-delta and differential-input ADC.
(Schematic on page 43 of ADS1258.pdf (SBAS297E–JUNE 2005–REVISED OCTOBER 2007) figure 67)
question: If ADCINP < ADCINN what code will I get? For example, ADCINP-ADCINN = -0.5(RefP-RefN) I will get 1xxxxxx code, and if ADCINP-ADCINN = 0.5(RefP-RefN) I will get 0xxxxx code?
