Temp&Hum 22 Click

How does it work?

Temp&Hum 22 Click as its foundation uses the SHT41A, high-accuracy automotive-grade 16-bit relative humidity and temperature sensor from Sensirion. The SHT41A builds on a wholly new and optimized CMOS chip offering reduced power consumption, accuracy, and a digital I2C interface for the fastest data transfer. It covers extended operating humidity, and temperature ranges from 0 to 100%RH and from -40°C to 125°C with accuracies of ±1%RH and ±0.3°C. The SHT41A’s integrated heater allows advanced on-board-diagnostics alongside a reliable operation in harsh conditions such as condensing environments.

The sensor performs best when operated within the recommended average temperature and humidity range of 5-60°C and 20-80%RH. Long-term exposure to conditions outside recommended normal range, especially at high relative humidity, may temporarily offset the RH signal. After returning to the recommended average temperature and humidity range, the sensor will recover to within specifications by itself.

Also, to maximize the over-temperature when using the heater, reduced heat conduction and heat capacity of the mounted sensor is desired. For this reason, the sensor is placed on this Click board™ in a particular position, a piece of a standard PCB with a cutout around the sensor area, increasing the decontamination yield and avoiding excess energy consumption. The PCB layout like this is optimized for minimal thermal heat sink influence.

This Click board™ can be operated only with a 3.3V logic voltage level. The board must perform appropriate logic voltage level conversion before using MCUs with different logic levels. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.

Software Support

We provide a library for the Temp&Hum 22 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for Temp&Hum 22 Click driver.

Key functions

• temphum22_soft_reset This function performs the software reset by sending the soft reset command.

• temphum22_read_serial_num This function reads the 4-bytes unique serial number by using I2C serial interface.

• temphum22_read_measurement_high_precision This function reads the temperature and humidity measurements with high precision.

Example Description

This example demonstrates the use of Temp&Hum 22 Click board™ by reading the temperature and humidity data.

void application_task ( void ) 
 { 
     float temperature, humidity; 
     if ( TEMPHUM22_OK == temphum22_read_measurement_high_precision ( &temphum22, &temperature, &humidity ) ) 
     { 
         log_printf ( &logger, " Temperature: %.2f degCrn", temperature ); 
         log_printf ( &logger, " Humidity: %.2f %%RHrnn", humidity ); 
         Delay_ms ( 1000 ); 
     } 
 }

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.TempHum22

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.

mikroSDK

This Click board™ is supported with mikroSDK – MikroElektronika Software Development Kit. To ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant Click board™ demo applications, mikroSDK should be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using.
