Forum Post: How (what) to write ADS1015 I2C

Hello,

Sounds like a basic question, and it is, but I am configured about the ADS1015 I2C interface.

Background FYI, I've been working with several I2C components, and most of the time there is a bus address, a command register (byte), followed by some data (sometimes).

However, it seems as though there is no concept of command register for the ADS1015, we just read/write data (byte, word, etc).

Is this a sound assumption? If not would someone please clarify?

After that, how do we manage the ALERT/RDY status when monitoring for, say, temperature driver controls. Like we set nominal low and high threshold values and await what values? i.e. read from the config and/or conversion register(s)?

Thank you...

Regards,
