SHTC3 Temperature & Humidity Sensor Module

Temperature and humidity are always two factors you need to consider when working with delicate electronics or living plant life. Often the slightest change in environmental conditions can upset the balance of your herb garden or let brittleness creep into your 3D filament rolls. Resourceful Makers enjoy using sensor modules for projects like weather stations, automatic bakeries or liquid processing plants that utilise environmental monitoring to its fullest. A wide range of breakout boards, like this SHTC3 Sensor Module, is available to Makers for keeping track of precise temperature and humidity levels and carefully controlling the environments in which your projects are located.

These SHTC3 Temperature and Humidity Sensor Modules are designed with the quality Sensirion sensor which operates with low power and high accuracy, perfect for portable projects. Requiring 3.3V to 5V supply voltage, this SHTC3 Sensor Module are easily powered by batteries or through your Arduino board itself. For such a tiny component, its sensors reach a remarkable range of -40°C to 125°C temperatures and up to 100%RH humidity. The I2C digital interface allows you to use the SHTC3 as a breakout board with your Arduino UNO R3 or similar microcontroller for a multitude of applications. Creative Makers use the SHTC3 Sensor Module’s compact design for fun DIY projects to monitor temperature and humidity such as weather stations, smart home appliances and automobiles.

Of course, we’re quite fortunate as Makers that we can get the exact Sensors, modules and components we need to cater to each of our unique projects. Having the choice between the SHTC3, the Gravity series sensors, as well as the high-quality SHT10 sensors is certainly very beneficial for Makers who like to personalise and customise projects to the max. With a reliable quality DFRobot design and a sleek black and white colour scheme, the SHTC3 Sensor Module board even provides some great aesthetics along with awesome functionality.
