Temperature is measured in degrees +celsius, relative humidity is expressed as a percentage. + +The device communicates with the I2C protocol. All sensors are set to I2C +address 0x70. See Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices.rst for methods to +instantiate the device. + +There are two options configurable by means of shtc1_platform_data: + +1. blocking (pull the I2C clock line down while performing the measurement) or + non-blocking mode. Blocking mode will guarantee the fastest result but + the I2C bus will be busy during that time. By default, non-blocking mode + is used. Make sure clock-stretching works properly on your device if you + want to use blocking mode. +2. high or low accuracy. High accuracy is used by default and using it is + strongly recommended. + +sysfs-Interface +--------------- + +temp1_input + - temperature input +humidity1_input + - humidity input |
