All you have to do is to write a chip driver. Take a look at the pcf85xx chips we already have drivers and docs for. I'd expect your ads1110 to be a chip of the same kind. Follow the guidelines found in doc/developers/new_drivers. If you ever have a driver working, please send it to us together with documentation and we'll make it part of our distribution.
