Available now from The Engineer Store, Bengaluru, with fast shipping and dedicated support.

Specifications

Key Features

• 16-Bit Resolution: Delivers up to 65,536 discrete levels for precise analog measurements far beyond the 10-bit ADC built into most Arduino boards
• Budget-Friendly Chinese Chip: Provides ADS1115-equivalent functionality at a significantly lower cost - perfect for prototyping, learning, and non-critical applications
• Programmable Gain Amplifier: Built-in PGA with 6 selectable gain levels allows direct measurement of small signals (down to +/-0.256V) without external amplification
• 4 Multiplexed Inputs: Read up to 4 single-ended analog signals or 2 differential pairs from a single module
• I2C Interface with Selectable Address: Connect up to 4 modules on the same I2C bus (addresses 0x48-0x4B) for a total of 16 analog channels
• Wide Voltage Compatibility: Works seamlessly with 3.3V systems (ESP32, Raspberry Pi, STM32) and 5V systems (Arduino Uno, Mega, Nano)
• Low Power Consumption: Single-shot mode with auto power-down draws only ~0.5 uA, ideal for battery-powered sensor nodes
• Built-in Comparator: Programmable threshold comparator with ALERT/RDY output pin enables interrupt-driven data acquisition
• Compact Breakout Design: Breadboard-friendly form factor with clearly labeled pins for quick prototyping
• Extensive Library Support: Fully compatible with the Adafruit ADS1X15 Arduino library, CircuitPython, and MicroPython drivers

Why Choose the Chinese Chip Version?

• Significant Cost Savings: Typically 50-70% cheaper than modules with genuine Texas Instruments ADS1115 ICs, making it ideal for bulk educational kits and throwaway prototypes
• Functionally Compatible: Uses the same I2C registers, commands, and software libraries as the original TI ADS1115 - no code changes needed
• Perfect for Learning: Excellent for students and beginners who want to explore 16-bit ADC concepts without investing in premium components
• Prototyping First: Validate your circuit design affordably, then upgrade to a genuine TI chip module for production if precision specifications are critical
• Adequate for Many Applications: For hobby sensors, environmental monitoring, and general-purpose voltage measurement, the performance difference is negligible in practical use
• Honest Labeling: We clearly identify this as a Chinese-chip variant so you know exactly what you're purchasing - no surprises
