ADS1115 Driver for Linux

I2C Interface driver for Texas Instruments ADS1115 ADC.

How to get:

On command line, execute git clone https://github.com/sunipkmukherjee/ads1115_linux

How to build:

After cloning the repository, cd into the directory and execute make. This will build the shared library libads1115.so that you can link with other executables in the build directory, along with a test program. The shared library can be installed (default location /usr/local) by executing make install with required permissions. The example program can be executed by running sudo make test.

You can execute make clean to delete the objects, and make spotless to restore the directory to original state. You can execute make uninstall with appropriate permissions to delete the installed library from default location.

By default, the library is built to access I2C bus using /dev/i2c-1 which is the default I2C bus address on a Raspberry Pi. However, this address can be changed in the I2C_FILE variable in include/libads1115.h or passed along at compile time.

Note: Since the variable is passed to the preprocessor through make, it should be in the following format:

make CXXFLAGS="-DI2C_FILE=\\\"/path/to/i2c\\\""
