Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for this humidity sensor?

This sensor is designed for a maximum supply voltage of 1V DC. Exceeding this voltage may damage the sensing element. Ensure your system's power supply is regulated to this level for accurate and safe operation.

How do I interface with this through-hole humidity sensor?

The sensor features standard through-hole terminals for soldering directly onto a PCB. You will need to design a conditioning circuit to read the capacitive output signal, typically involving an oscillator or capacitance-to-digital converter, to translate the humidity change into a usable voltage or digital reading.

What is the typical response time and does it require calibration?

While specific response time data isn't provided, capacitive humidity sensors generally have a moderate response to changes in ambient humidity. For highest accuracy, periodic calibration against a known reference standard is recommended, especially if used in precision measurement applications.
