Digital Humidity Sensors (RH&T) - Overview

Sensirion’s family of relative humidity and temperature sensors has made it to be an industry standard - mainly due to high integration (CMOSens® Technology) and tiny size. The capacitive humidity sensor provides digital and fully calibrated output which allows for easy integration. The humidity sensors' excellent long term stability has been very well perceived and the cutting edge low energy consumption is unachieved and makes them the right choice for any remote application.

The relative humidity sensors are provided in different packaging types: SMD type (SHT1x series), pin type (SHT7x series) and the new DFN type (SHT2x series). The SMD and DFN types are lead-free reflow solderable while pin type sensors are used for devices where flexible integration or easy exchange is crucial.

Each application deserves a specific type of humidity sensor depending on required packaging and accuracy - the following selection guide shall help to make the right choice. For detailed specification please refer to respective datasheets.

	SMD-type series'   humidity sensors	DFN-type series'   humidity sensors	Pin-type series'   humidity sensors
Accuracy ± 2% RH	SHT15		SHT75
Accuracy ± 3% RH	SHT11	SHT21 (NEW)	SHT71
Accuracy ± 4.5% RH	SHT10
