The HDC1000 is a digital humidity sensor with integrated temperature sensor that provides excellent measurement accuracy at very low power. The device measures humidity based on a novel capacitive sensor. The humidity and temperature sensors are factory calibrated.
The sensing element of the HDC1000 is placed on the bottom part of the device, which makes the HDC1000 more robust against dirt, dust, and other environmental contaminants. The HDC1000 is functional within the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range.
Key Features
- Relative Humidity (RH) Operating Range 0% to 100%
- 14 Bit Measurement Resolution
- Relative Humidity Accuracy ±3%
- Temperature Accuracy ±0.2°C
- Supply Voltage 3 V to 5 V
- I2C Interface
Connection information
The easiest way is to purchase some sort of breakout, here is how you connect the module to your Arduino
Code
Import the Adafruit HDC 1008 libraries into the Arduino IDE as you would normally do – these are available from https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_HDC1000_Library
This example uses some inline c which makes the job of re-using existing libraries easy
