ADS1015 12-Bit ADC - 4 Channel with Programmable Gain Amplifier - STEMMA QT / Qwiic

OverviewAlternates
ADS1015 12-Bit ADC - 4 Channel with Programmable Gain Amplifier - STEMMA QT / Qwiic - Adafruit - 1083

4-channel, 12-bit ADC with programmable gain amplifier (PGA) on an I2C breakout board. Samples at up to 3300 SPS; PGA supports input ranges from ±256mV to ±6.144V. Useful when a microcontroller lacks an ADC or when higher precision is needed.
