Figure 3-16. Connection Diagram for a 3-Wire RTD Using One IDAC and a High-Side R
REF
also shows that for this RTD configuration, the RTD is connected to REFN1, RTD_A, and RTD_B.
Additionally, jumpers JP4, JP5, and JP6 are connected whereas jumper JP3 is disconnected. Moreover, the
AIN1 pin on the ADS1x48 is configured to be a current source. Finally, this specific configuration requires two
measurements for lead-wire cancellation: the first is between AIN0 and AIN2 and, the second is between AIN2
and AIN3.
