ADS124S06: ADS124S06 driver program for MSP430

Part Number: ADS124S06
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS124S08EVM, ADS124S08, MSP430F5529, ADS1248

Hi, all. Recently I want to use ADS124S06 to do RTD temperature measurement with MSP430, but I cannot find a driver program in TI.com. Do you send know where can I find this driver? Thanks.

  • Hi Charles,

     

    There may be some confusion on my part for the 'driver' you are asking about.  Are you asking for an SPI driver?  Are you asking for a specific code sequence to setup and the ADS124S06 to take an RTD measurement?  Can you be more specific about what you require?  You may find the ADS124S08EVM helpful as there are many applications circuit possibilities including RTDs.  The EVM user's guide explains these circuits in more detail.  For firmware development , 'C' code will need to be written to communicate to the ADS124S06 as well as collect and process the data.

     

    Unfortunately there is not have a specific code example for the ADS124S06 and MSP430.  I do have example code for the ADS124S08 using TIVA and the ADS124S08.h and ADS124S08.c can be used for communicating properly to the ADS124S06:

    I also have example code project for the ADS1248 that is MSP430 based for the MSP430F5529.  It can be found here:

    http://www.ti.com/lit/zip/sbac144

     

    You should be able to take the ADS1248 project along with the code related to the ADS124S08 to create some working code for the ADS124S06 and the MSP430.  The ADS1248 code actually has defines for both MSP430 and TIVA so you should be able to figure out which pieces of the code apply or are different than the TIVA code.

     

    Best regards,

    Bob B

  • Thanks to your support. I am thinking if we can write a C demo code about how to use ADS124S0x. It may be convenient for our customer to design their program.
