Technical overview
- Sensor: DHT22 (AM2302); calibrated digital module with higher accuracy and wider range than the DHT11.
- Temperature resolution 0.1 °C; accuracy ±0.5 °C; range −40 °C to 80 °C.
- Humidity resolution 0.1 %RH; accuracy ±2 %RH at 25 °C; range 0 %RH to 99.9 %RH.
- Operating voltage: 3.3 V to 5.5 V.
- Recommended storage conditions: 10 °C to 40 °C, humidity ≤ 60 %RH.
- Pins: Pin 1 = VCC (power), Pin 2 = GND, Pin 3 = DOUT (SDA data line of the AM2302).
- Communication uses a simplified single-bus protocol; in idle state the bus line is pulled HIGH by an external pull-up resistor of about 5.1 kΩ.
- One transmission carries 40 bits, MSB first: humidity high/low, temperature high/low, parity bit.
- Start signal: host pulls SDA low for at least 800 µs; the sensor responds with 80 µs LOW followed by 80 µs HIGH.
- After the start signal the sensor transmits 40 bits serially; the parity bit equals the sum of the four data words modulo 2.
Notes and version constraints
- The source contains no explicit commands or API calls for the DHT22; concrete code examples are not included in the provided text.
- Accuracy specifications apply only under the stated reference conditions (e.g., ±2 %RH at 25 °C); deviations at other temperatures are expected.
- The single-bus timing (800 µs start, 80 µs response, 50/70 µs bit encoding) is version-sensitive; changes to the sensor firmware may alter the protocol.
- Storage conditions (10–40 °C, ≤60 %RH) are recommended values, not guarantees; prolonged storage outside this range may affect calibration.
