Need help getting started with a 4 ch 16 bit ADC

I’m trying to get a 4 channel 16 bit ADC (<LINK_TEXT text=“https://www.seeedstudio.com/4-Channel-1 … -2829.html”>https://www.seeedstudio.com/4-Channel-16-Bit-ADC-for-Raspberry-Pi-ADS1115-p-2829.html</LINK_TEXT>) working on a Raspberry Pi 4.



I went through the wiki and everything works as far as the install and the ads1115.sh script in pi-hats.



My problem is getting some C code to interface with it. For example, this code fails at the </s>ioctl(fd, I2C_SLAVE, ads_address) < 0<e> test on line 26…

if ((fd = open("/dev/i2c-1", O_RDWR)) < 0) {
printf(“Error: Couldn’t open device! %d\n”, fd);
return 1;
}

// connect to ads1115 as i2c slave
if (ioctl(fd, I2C_SLAVE, ads_address) < 0) {
printf(“Error: Couldn’t find device on address!\n”);
return 1;
}

if (write(fd, buf, 3) != 3) {
perror(“Write to register 1”);
exit(-1);
}
//////////////////////////////

do {
if (read(fd, buf, 2) != 2) {
perror(“Read conversion”);
exit(-1);
}
} while (buf[0] & 0x80 == 0);
//////////////////////////////

buf[0] = 0; // conversion register is 0
if (write(fd, buf, 1) != 1) {
perror(“Write register select”);
exit(-1);
}
if (read(fd, buf, 2) != 2) {
perror(“Read conversion”);
exit(-1);
}
//////////////////////////////
// convert output and display results
val = (int16_t)buf[0]256 + (uint16_t)buf[1];
printf(“Conversion %02x %02x %d %f\n”,
buf[0], buf[1], val, (float)val
4.096/32768.0);

close(fd);

return 0;
}[/code]

Does anyone have some C code that does an analog in conversion that they know works with this device on a Raspberry Pi 4?



Thanks

Not sure if this helps, but when i run



i2cdetect -y 1



I get the following output which is not quite expected…I get a ‘UU’ where I expect a ‘48’
