Supported Chips:
Sensirion SHT4X
Prefix: ‘sht4x’
Addresses scanned: None
Datasheet:
Author: Navin Sankar Velliangiri <navin@linumiz.com>
Description¶
This driver implements support for the Sensirion SHT4x chip, a humidity and temperature sensor. Temperature is measured in degree celsius, relative humidity is expressed as a percentage. In sysfs interface, all values are scaled by 1000, i.e. the value for 31.5 degrees celsius is 31500.
Usage Notes¶
The device communicates with the I2C protocol. Sensors can have the I2C address 0x44. See How to instantiate I2C devices for methods to instantiate the device.
Sysfs entries¶
temp1_input |
Measured temperature in millidegrees Celsius |
humidity1_input |
Measured humidity in %H |
update_interval |
The minimum interval for polling the sensor, in milliseconds. Writable. Must be at least 2000. |
heater_power |
The requested heater power, in milliwatts. Available values: 20, 110, 200 (default: 200). |
heater_time |
The requested operating time of the heater, in milliseconds. Available values: 100, 1000 (default 1000). |
heater_enable |
Enable the heater with the selected power and for the selected time in order to remove condensed water from the sensor surface. The heater cannot be manually turned off once enabled (it will automatically turn off after completing its operation).
