ADS1018: Production testing of ADS1018

Part Number: ADS1018

Hello,

I am using ADS1018 for our product as a type-t thermocouple measurement device. We are looking forward to production of these PCBs, however I wondering if there is a quick way to test the functionality ADS1018 device. I know there is an evaluation board available, however I am not sure how to connect that to my custom board.

Any examples or pointers would be greatly appreciated..

  • Shubham,

    If you want to test the evaluation board, it should be relatively simple. You only need to connect wires from the device to the microcontroller for VDD supply, SDA, SCL, and ground. Those four connections should allow you to test the communications with the device. It should also let you program registers and take data.
