Pmod HYGRO Reference Manual
Revised February 22, 2017
This manual applies to the Pmod HYGRO rev. A
Overview
The Digilent Pmod HYGRO (Revision A) is small relative humidity and temperature sensor. With the
you can determine the relative humidity of the environment with up to 14 bits of resolution.
The Pmod HYGRO.

Functional Description

The Pmod HYGRO is designed to digitally report the relative humidity and ambient temperature upon request by
the host board. Up to 14-bits of resolution for each sensor may be collected by allowing for longer conversion
times. A resistive heating element can be enabled to drive off condensation that accumulates on the sensor after
being exposed at high humidity conditions.

    400 kHz, users can both configure and read from the Pmod HYGRO. Header J2 on the Pmod HYGRO passes through all of the signals present on the main Header J1 to allow for the daisy chaining of multiple I²C compatible modules.
  • Page 3 Table 4. Typical conversion times. Upon device power-up, the Pmod HYGRO requires at least 15 ms prior to being able to perform a measurement. To perform a measurement, users need to configure (or accept) the measurement settings in the Configuration Register, and then trigger the measurement(s) by sending an I²C write transaction along with the address pointer...

    (3.3V/5V) (3.3V/5V) The Pmod HYGRO is an ideal Pmod to use in long term humidity test application. As a very low power Pmod between measurements, long term data to measure humidity changes in an environment can easily be collected. Any external power applied to the Pmod HYGRO must be within 2.7V and 5.5V to ensure that the on-board chips operate correctly;...
