The difference between the two +devices is the higher level of precision of the SHT25 (1.8% relative humidity, +0.2 degree Celsius) compared with the SHT21 (2.0% relative humidity, +0.3 degree Celsius). + +The devices communicate with the I2C protocol. All sensors are set to the same +I2C address 0x40, so an entry with I2C_BOARD_INFO("sht21", 0x40) can be used +in the board setup code. + +sysfs-Interface +--------------- + +temp1_input + - temperature input + +humidity1_input + - humidity input +eic + - Electronic Identification Code + +Notes +----- + +The driver uses the default resolution settings of 12 bit for humidity and 14 +bit for temperature, which results in typical measurement times of 22 ms for +humidity and 66 ms for temperature. To keep self heating below 0.1 degree +Celsius, the device should not be active for more than 10% of the time, +e.g. maximum two measurements per second at the given resolution. + +Different resolutions, the on-chip heater, and using the CRC checksum +are not supported yet. |
