8.3.13 Temperature Sensor

The ADS1120 offers an integrated precision temperature sensor. The temperature sensor mode is enabled by setting bit TS = 1b in the configuration register. When in temperature sensor mode, the settings of configuration register 0 have no effect and the device uses the internal reference for measurement, regardless of the selected voltage reference source. Temperature readings follow the same process as the analog inputs for starting and reading conversion results. Temperature data are represented as a 14-bit result that is left-justified within the 16-bit conversion data. Data are output starting with the most significant byte (MSB). When reading the two data bytes, the first 14 bits are used to indicate the temperature measurement result. One 14-bit LSB equals 0.03125°C. Negative numbers are represented in binary two's complement format, as shown in Table 8-5.
