Description

This Grove SHT40 digital sensor is based on Sensirion's industry-proven humidity and temperature sensors. It can provide constant temperature and humidity accuracy over an extensive measurement range, making it the best price/performance ratio available. And with the grove platform, you are ready to plug and play the SHT4x sensor on any microcontroller (Arduino) or microprocessor (Raspberry Pi).

The Grove-SHT40 digital 4th generation sensor comprises an entirely new and optimized CMOSens® chip, offering lower power consumption, which makes it highly suitable for low-power and battery-supported applications. It has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, an excellent 1.8% typical relative humidity accuracy from 25 to 75%, and a 0.2 °C typical accuracy from 0 to 75 °C.

The fully calibrated Grove-SHT40 sensor offers linearized digital output and NIST traceability. And our standard Grove four-pin I2C interface makes it easy to read or communicate with integrated circuits.

Due to the high accuracy of the SHT40 sensor and the compatibility of our grove system, Grove-SHT40 is perfect for high-end industrial applications, projects for hobbyists, learning projects for beginners, etc.

What is Grove?

Grove makes it easier to connect, experiment, and simplify the prototyping process. No jumpers or soldering required. We have developed more than 300 Grove modules, covering a wide range of applications that can fulfill a variety of needs. Not only are these open hardware, but we also have open-source software.

If your development board is a Seeeduino, simply connect it to the I2C port and download a few lines of code, then you are ready to roll!
