Description

The HTU21D sensor module integrates a MEMS-based capacitive humidity sensor and a band-gap temperature sensor, delivering calibrated digital outputs via a dedicated ASIC. The sensor’s robust silicon-based construction ensures long-term stability with minimal drift, rated at -0.5% RH per year.

Communication is handled through a standard I2C bus, supporting clock stretching and multiple device addresses. The module’s fast measurement time of up to 50 ms enables real-time environmental monitoring for dynamic control systems. While the sensing element is protected, the PCB is not waterproof; for high-humidity or condensing environments, external sealing is recommended.

Key Features

  • High-precision digital humidity sensor with ±2% RH accuracy (10-95% RH).
  • Integrated temperature sensor with ±0.3°C accuracy over a wide -40°C to +105°C range.
  • Ultra-low power operation at 2.7 µW, enabling long-term battery-powered deployments.
  • Factory-calibrated digital output via I2C interface, eliminating analog signal conditioning.
  • Compact surface-mount design with onboard 4.7k I2C pull-up resistors for simplified wiring.
  • Fast response time of 5 seconds for dynamic environmental tracking.
  • Excellent long-term stability with minimal humidity drift for reliable data logging.
  • Optimized performance-to-cost ratio for high-volume environmental sensing applications.

Applications

  • HVAC system monitoring and control for indoor air quality management.
  • Weather station data logging for precise ambient temperature and humidity recording.
  • IoT environmental sensor nodes in smart agriculture and greenhouse automation.
  • Portable data loggers and handheld instruments for field measurements.
  • Consumer appliance integration for humidors, incubators, and dehumidifiers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the HTU21D module?

The HTU21D module operates from 1.5V to 3.6V DC. It is designed for direct compatibility with 3.3V logic microcontrollers like ESP32, STM32, and Raspberry Pi. Do not apply voltages above 3.6V, as this can permanently damage the sensor IC.

How do I connect and communicate with the HTU21D sensor?

The module uses a standard I2C interface. Connect the VCC pin to 3.3V, GND to ground, SDA to your microcontroller's I2C data line, and SCL to the I2C clock line. The board includes onboard 4.7k pull-up resistors. For multi-device I2C buses, you may need to disable these resistors to avoid bus conflicts.

Is the HTU21D sensor module waterproof?

No, the HTU21D module is not waterproof. The sensing element is sensitive to direct water contact and condensation. For use in high-humidity or outdoor environments, it is recommended to seal the PCB or place the sensor in a protective, ventilated enclosure to prevent water droplets from damaging the chip.

What is the measurement accuracy and response time?

The humidity accuracy is ±2% RH within the 10% to 95% RH range. Temperature accuracy is typically ±0.3°C. The sensor has a fast measurement time of up to 50 ms, but the overall response time to a step change in conditions is approximately 5 seconds to reach 63% of the final value.
