Who makes ADS 1115 boards?

Post by newsbingta »

Amazon is selling an ADS 1115 board from HiLetGo ( https://www.amazon.com/HiLetgo-Converte ... B01DLHKMO2 ) and the picture of the board looks identical to the picture of the one sold by AdaFruit ( https://www.adafruit.com/product/1085 ).

Does anyone know if HiLetGo & AdaFruit get these boards from a common source and what company actually manufactures them?

Thanks.

We design and manufacture genuine Adafruit ADS1115 breakout boards in our own factory using genuine ADS1115 chips from Ti. Since we are an open source company, we also publish all of our design files: https://github.com/adafruit/ADS1X15-Breakout-Board-PCBs

The board pictured in the link you provided is a 3rd party clone which appears to be based on our design. We do not know where they are manufactured or where they source their components. As some forum members have discovered, not all clones are functionally equivalent to the real thing. See this thread for details: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=175107&p=869956

Ok. Thank you very much. That's what I thought, but just wanted to make sure. Everything I've order from Adafruit has been top quality, so I will continue to do that. Thanks.
