DHT11 Temperature and humidity sensor is a sensor based on the digital temperature and humidity sensor DHT11. It is a combination of temperature and humidity sensor, which converts physical temperature and humidity through the temperature, humidity sensor and the corresponding circuit into a digital quantity that is convenient for data acquisition equipment to read directly.
DHT11 is composed of a resistive humidity sensing device and an NTC coefficient temperature sensing device, featuring calibrated digital signal output. Using a single-bus serial interface, the output data consists of a total of 5 bytes: Humidity integer, humidity digit, temperature integer, temperature digit, and checksum. The checksum is the low 8-bit binary complement of the result of adding each byte of data. If the checksum calculation result does not match the last byte of data sent by DHT11, the data may be wrong and must be re-obtained.
This module can be used for weather stations, temperature and humidity regulators, and related environmental monitoring systems.
