Grove - Temp and Humi Sensor(SHT31)

Grove - Temp&Humi Sensor(SHT31) is a highly reliable, accurate, quick response and integrated temperature & humidity sensor. The sensor(chip) used in the module is designed with Sensirion's CMOSens^® technology. The chip is well calibrated, linearized and compensated for digital output.

The typical accuracy of this module can be ±2%RH (for relative humidity) and ±0.3°C (for temperature). This module is compatible with 3.3 Volts and 5 Volts and hence does not require a voltage level shifter. This module communicates using with I²C serial bus and can work up to 1 MHz speed. We also have provided a highly abstracted library to make this product more easier to use.

Using the sensor is easy. For Seeeduino (compliant with Arduino), just connect this breakout board with the main control board via Grove cable. Then use the provided library and example/demo code available at GitHub to get your data. If you're using an Arduino without a Base Shield, simply connect the VIN pin to the 5V voltage pin, GND to ground, SCL to I2C Clock (Analog 5) and SDA to I2C Data (Analog 4).

Upgradable to Industrial Sensors

With the SenseCAP S2110 controller and S2100 data logger, you can easily turn the Grove into a LoRaWAN® sensor. Seeed not only helps you with prototyping but also offers you the possibility to expand your project with the SenseCAP series of robust industrial sensors.

SenseCAP S210x series industrial sensors provide an out-of-box experience for environmental sensing. Please refer to the S2101 Wireless Temperature and Humidity Sensor with higher performance and robustness for air quality monitoring. The series includes sensors for soil moisture, air temperature and humidity, light intensity, CO2, EC, and an 8-in-1 weather station. Try the latest SenseCAP S210x for your next successful industrial project.

caution

The platforms mentioned above as supported is/are an indication of the module's software or theoritical compatibility. We only provide software library or code examples for Arduino platform in most cases. It is not possible to provide software library / demo code for all possible MCU platforms. Hence, users have to write their own software library.

Hardware Overview

caution

Do not touch, shake or let this product vibrate while using. Otherwise, it will affect the accuracy of data measured.

note

If we don't have Grove Base Shield, We also can directly Grove - Temperature&Humidity Sensor(SHT31) to Seeeduino as below.

5V	Red
GND	Black
SDA	White
SCL	Yellow

Software

Step 1. Download the Library from Github.
Step 2. Refer to How to install library to install library for Arduino.
Step 3. Restart the Arduino IDE. Open a new sketch, and copy the following code into the new sketch.

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include "SHT31.h"

SHT31 sht31 = SHT31();

void setup() {  
  Serial.begin(9600);
  while(!Serial);
  Serial.println("begin...");  
  sht31.begin();  
}

void loop() {
  float temp = sht31.getTemperature();
  float hum = sht31.getHumidity();
  Serial.print("Temp = "); 
  Serial.print(temp);
  Serial.println(" C"); //The unit for  Celsius because original arduino don't support speical symbols
  Serial.print("Hum = "); 
  Serial.print(hum);
  Serial.println("%"); 
  Serial.println();
  delay(1000);
}

Step 4. Upload the demo. If you do not know how to upload the code, please check How to upload code.
Step 5. Open the Serial Monitor of Arduino IDE by click Tool-> Serial Monitor. Or tap the ++ctrl+shift+m++ key at the same time. Set the baud rate to 9600. If every thing goes well, you will get the results.

The result should be like:
