ADS1115 4-Channel 16-Bit A/D Converter ====================================== .. seo:: :description: Instructions for setting up ADS1115/ADS1015 multiplexed analog voltage sensors. :image: ads1115.jpg :keywords: ADS1115 ADS1015 .. _ads1115-component: Component/Hub ------------- The ``ads1115`` domain creates a global hub so that you can later create individual sensors using the :ref:`ADS1115 Sensor Platform `. To use this hub, first setup the :ref:`I²C Bus ` and connect the sensor to the pins specified there. .. figure:: images/ads1115-full.jpg :align: center :width: 50.0% ADS1115 16-Bit ADC. .. _Adafruit_ADS1115: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1085 .. _Adafruit_ADS1015: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1083 .. code-block:: yaml ads1115: - address: 0x48 Configuration variables: ************************ - **address** (**Required**, int): The i²c address of the sensor. See :ref:`I²C Addresses ` for more information. - **continuous_mode** (*Optional*, boolean): Set if the ADS1115 should continuously measure voltages or only measure them when an update is called. Please enable this for the :doc:`ct_clamp` component. Defaults to ``off``. - **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID for this ADS1115 Hub. Use this if you want to use multiple ADS1115 hubs at once. .. _ads1115_i2c_addresses: I²C Addresses ------------- In order to allow multiple sensors to be connected to the same i²c bus, the creators of this sensor hardware have included some options to change the i²c address. - If the address pin is pulled to GND, the address is ``0x48`` (Default). - If the address pin is pulled to VCC, the address is ``0x49``. - If the address pin is tied to SDA, the address is ``0x4a``. - If the address pin is tied to SCL, the address is ``0x4B``. .. _ads1115-sensor: Sensor ------ The ``ads1115`` sensor allows you to use your ADS1115 sigma-delta ADC sensors (`datasheet `__, `Adafruit_ADS1115`_) or your ADS1015 sigma-delta ADC sensors (`datasheet `__, `Adafruit_ADS1015`_) with ESPHome. First, setup an :ref:`ADS1115 Hub ` for your ADS1115 sensor and then use this sensor platform to create individual sensors that will report the voltage to Home Assistant. .. _Adafruit: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1085 .. figure:: images/ads1115-ui.png :align: center :width: 80.0% .. code-block:: yaml ads1115: - address: 0x48 sensor: - platform: ads1115 multiplexer: 'A0_GND' gain: 6.144 name: "ADS1115 Channel A0-GND" Configuration variables: ************************ - **multiplexer** (**Required**): The multiplexer channel of this sensor. Effectively means between which pins you want to measure voltage. - **gain** (**Required**, float): The gain of this sensor. - **ads1115_id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the :ref:`ADS1115 Hub ` you want to use this sensor. - **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to check the sensor. Defaults to ``60s``. - **resolution** (*Optional*, string): the resolution of this sensor. Defaults to ``16 bits``. - ``16 bits`` - ``12 bits`` - All other options from :ref:`Sensor `. Multiplexer and Gain -------------------- .. note:: As per (`datasheet `__, `Adafruit`_) Section 7.3 Note 2: "No more than VDD + 0.3V must be applied to the analog inputs of the device." This means if you power the device with 3.3V, take care not to supply the 4 AIN pins with more than 3.6V. The ADS1115 has a multiplexer that can be configured to measure voltage between several pin configurations. These are: - ``A0_A1`` (between Pin 0 and Pin 1) - ``A0_A3`` (between Pin 0 and Pin 3) - ``A1_A3`` (between Pin 1 and Pin 3) - ``A2_A3`` (between Pin 2 and Pin 3) - ``A0_GND`` (between Pin 0 and GND) - ``A1_GND`` (between Pin 1 and GND) - ``A2_GND`` (between Pin 2 and GND) - ``A3_GND`` (between Pin 3 and GND) Additionally, the ADS1115 has a Programmable Gain Amplifier (PGA) that can help you measure voltages in different ranges, these are: - ``6.144`` (measures up to 6.144V) - ``4.096`` (measures up to 4.096V) - ``2.048`` (measures up to 2.048V) - ``1.024`` (measures up to 1.024V) - ``0.512`` (measures up to 0.512V) - ``0.256`` (measures up to 0.256V) The ADS1115 can be used with defaults settings. When using an ADS1015, the resolution has to be specified and should be defined to ``12_BITS`` (or equivalent notations like ``12 BITS`` or ``12 bits``).
