Easy to use for beginners
Found plenty of example code online. Connected it to my ESP32 and had data logging up and running in under an hour.

Good precision, low power
Power consumption is very low, which is great for battery-operated nodes. Temperature reading is spot on; humidity is within expected tolerance.

Reliable humidity monitoring
I used these in a custom controller for my greenhouse. They handle high humidity environments well without drifting significantly over time.

Great value, small footprint
The DFN package is tiny, so soldering requires a steady hand or a hot air station. Once mounted, performance is solid for the price point.

Perfect for my weather station project
These sensors are incredibly accurate and easy to interface with an Arduino using the I2C library. The readings stabilize quickly and match my calibrated reference meter.

Consistent performance
Bought a batch of ten for a distributed sensing network. All units performed consistently out of the box with minimal calibration needed.
Q: Is this sensor suitable for outdoor use?
A: The sensor itself is not waterproof. If used outdoors, it must be housed in a breathable enclosure that protects against rain and direct sunlight while allowing air flow.
Q: What is the I2C address for this sensor?
A: The default I2C address for the HTU21D/HTU20D is typically 0x40. Please refer to the datasheet for details on changing this if supported by your specific variant.
Q: How long does it take to get a new reading?
A: The conversion time depends on the resolution setting. At highest resolution, it takes approximately 50ms for temperature and 16ms for humidity measurements.
Q: Can I use this with a 5V Arduino Uno directly?
A: No, the operating voltage is 1.5V to 3.6V. You must use a logic level shifter or run your microcontroller at 3.3V to avoid damaging the sensor.
Q: Does this module come with pull-up resistors for the I2C lines?
A: This is the bare sensor module. While some breakout boards include pull-up resistors, this specific item typically requires you to add external 4.7kΩ pull-up resistors to your SDA and SCL lines.
