Part Number: ADS1218 We have been using the ADS 1218 for for several years for pressure and temperature sensor data acquisition and produced few hundreds of card(with 48 ADC on board) working flawlessly with same circuit on board. Recently we encountered a peculiar problem with data output of the one of the ADS1218 , where we configured the ADC for a particular setting of gain ,data rate and system offset and gain calibrated . when thousands of samples are continuously acquired two or three data samples are 0x000000 or 0xffffff or in between value also. We have no reason to suspect the circuit because when device was replaced with new one(with same setting) there was no issue at all, but removed device when tested separately showed the same problem by our device test engineers. Can we categorize it as a random device failure or not? If not what you suggest us to do. I will appreciate a early reply. Thanks and regards Haresh
