DHT22 is an advanced temperature and humidity sensor that provides calibrated digital signal output. It offers high reliability and stability for long-term operations. This sensor includes an 8-bit microcontroller that delivers fast and accurate responses.
The sensor can measure temperature in the range of -40 to 80°C with an accuracy of ±1°C and humidity in the range of 0-100% with an accuracy of ±5% RH. Due to the sensor's data collection period, measurement results can be obtained in 2-second intervals. It is slightly larger in size compared to the DHT21 model.
NOTE: A pull-up resistor is required between Vcc and the output pin. Therefore, it is recommended to use a resistor between 4.7K and 10K. Since the DHT11 model shares similar features, an application made with one model can also be applied to the other.
