Description

The AHT20 is a calibrated digital sensor combining a MEMS capacitive humidity sensing element with a band-gap temperature sensor. It delivers fully calibrated, linearized digital signals via a standard I2C two-wire interface, simplifying integration into environmental monitoring systems, smart home devices, and industrial data loggers.

Housed in a compact white plastic shell with a built-in cotton core filter, the module offers basic protection against dust and particulate matter. The included 1-meter cable with a 4-pin terminal connector (compatible with XH2.54, XHB2.54, or BH2.0 headers) provides flexible mounting options. The sensor operates across a wide voltage range, making it suitable for both 3.3V and 5V logic platforms.

Key Features

  • High-Accuracy Sensing: Delivers precise environmental data with temperature resolution of 0.01°C and humidity resolution of 0.024% RH.
  • Digital I2C Interface: Provides a simple, two-wire serial communication protocol for easy connection to microcontrollers and single-board computers.
  • Broad Voltage Compatibility: Supports a 3V to 5.5V DC supply, accommodating both 3.3V and 5V logic systems without level shifting.
  • Integrated Dust Protection: White plastic housing with a built-in cotton core helps filter dust and larger particles, extending sensor life in non-condensing environments.
  • Factory Calibrated: Each sensor is individually calibrated during production, ensuring consistent out-of-the-box performance and eliminating the need for user calibration.
  • Compact and Lightweight Design: Small 12mm diameter form factor and low 21g weight enable integration into space-constrained applications.

Applications

  • Indoor environmental monitoring and HVAC system control.
  • Smart home automation for climate and comfort management.
  • Data logging in weather stations and agricultural monitoring systems.
  • Industrial process monitoring where stable temperature and humidity feedback is required.
  • Prototyping and educational electronics projects with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or ESP platforms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the AHT20 sensor module?

The AHT20 module operates from 3V to 5.5V DC. This wide range allows direct compatibility with both 3.3V systems (like Raspberry Pi or ESP32) and 5V systems (like most Arduino boards) without requiring a logic level converter.

How do I connect and read data from the AHT20 sensor?

The sensor communicates via the I2C protocol. Connect the VCC, GND, SDA, and SCL pins to your microcontroller's corresponding I2C bus. Use a standard I2C library (like Wire.h for Arduino) to initiate communication and read the calibrated temperature and humidity data registers provided by the sensor.

What is the purpose of the white shell and built-in cotton core?

The white plastic shell provides mechanical protection. The built-in cotton core acts as a basic filter, helping to prevent dust and larger airborne particles from directly contacting the sensitive MEMS sensing element inside, which can help maintain long-term accuracy in dusty environments.

Is the AHT20 sensor calibrated, and do I need to calibrate it myself?

Yes, the AHT20 is factory calibrated. Each sensor undergoes individual calibration during production, and the calibration coefficients are stored in its onboard non-volatile memory. This provides accurate out-of-the-box performance, and user calibration is typically not required.

What connector type is on the 1-meter cable, and is it customizable?

The cable terminates in a standard 4-pin female connector. The product listing indicates compatibility with common 2.54mm pitch headers (XH2.54, XHB2.54) and a 2.0mm pitch option (BH2.0), offering flexibility for different prototyping breadboards or permanent installations.
