DESCRIPTION
This Block adds ADC functionality to Edison’s I2C bus. The ADS1015 ADC from TI provides a single 12-bit delta-sigma convertor with an analogue multiplexer. It can be configured as a four-channel single-ended device or as a two-channel differential device.
The ADC Block has jumpers to allow the selection of the I2C slave address among four different options, allowing up to four of these cards to be stacked under one Edison. The sampling rate is not sufficient for audio capture, at 2.2kHz, but it should be adequate for most control applications.
The Intel¬Æ Edison is an ultra small computing platform that will change the way you look at embedded electronics. Each Edison is packed with a huge amount of tech goodies into a tiny package while still providing the same robust strength of your go-to single board computer. Powered by the Intel¬Æ Atom SoC dual-core CPU and including an integrated WiFi, Bluetooth LE, and a 70-pin connector to attach a veritable slew of shield-like “Blocks” which can be stacked on top of each other. It’s no wonder how this little guy is lowering the barrier of entry to the world of electronics!
