am I drawing too much current on analog inputs?

Open SensorPlay opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

I have a pressure sensor hooked up and want to ensure it does not draw too much current.

The ADS1220 datasheet lists current sources as 10-1500 microamps. If I understand this correctly, A+/A- can only source 1.5mA to the wheatstone bridge?

My A+/A- has a resistance across of ~300 Ohms.

With nominal voltages (5v, 3.3v, etc), will my pressure sensor over-draw?
