HTU21D Class Reference

API for the HTU21D Temperature & Humidity Sensor. More...

Detailed Description

HTU21D by Measurement Specialties is a digital humidity sensor with temperature output. RH reports between 0 and 100%, and the temperature range is -40 to +125 degC. Note: getCompRH is the preferred function below (passing true to cause a measurement cycle). If actual values used for the compensated ready are necessary, use the getHumidity(false) and getTemperature(false) functions following the getCompRH call. Also note the sensor should not perform more than a couple of measurements per second to limit the heating of the sensor.

Member Function Documentation

int sampleData ( void  )

Initiates a temperature/pressure mesasurement and waits for the function to complete. The humidity and temperature registers can be read after this call.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

float getHumidity ( int  bSampleData = false)

Gets the current measured humidity [RH]

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

float getTemperature ( int  bSampleData = false)

Gets the humidity cell temperature [degC]

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

float getCompRH ( int  bSampleData = true)

Using the current humidity and temperature, the function calculates the compensated RH using the equation from the datasheet.

Here is the call graph for this function:

int setHeater ( int  bEnable = false)

Sets the heater state. The heater is used to test the sensor functionality since the temperature should increase 0.5 to 1.5 degC, and the humidity should decrease. The testSensor() function below uses the heater.

Parameters
bEnableSets to non-zero to turn the heater on

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

void resetSensor ( void  )

Performs a soft reset of the MPL3115A2 device to ensure it is in a known state. This function can be used to reset the min/max temperature and pressure values.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

int testSensor ( void  )

Tests the device and verifies it is operating correctly.

Here is the call graph for this function:

mraa::Result i2cWriteReg ( uint8_t  reg,
uint8_t  value 
)

Writes to a one-byte register

Parameters
regAddress of the register
valueByte to be written

Here is the caller graph for this function:

uint16_t i2cReadReg_16 ( int  reg)

Reads a two-byte register

Parameters
regAddress of the register

Here is the caller graph for this function:

uint8_t i2cReadReg_8 ( int  reg)

Reads a one-byte register

Parameters
regAddress of the register
