1. Introduction
Front and back side appearance
of the SHT1x click Board
SHT1x Click is an accessory board in
mikroBus™
form factor. It includes a
digital humidity and temperature sensor
SHT11. A unique capacitive sensor element
is used to measure relative humidity while
the temperature is measured by a band-
gap sensor. Serial I C interface and factory

calibration, allow easy and fast system
integration. Board is set to use 3.3V power
supply by default. Solder PWR SEL
jumper to 5V position if used with 5V
systems.
Before using your click board, make sure
to solder the provided 1x8 male headers
to both sides of the board. Two 1x8 male
headers are included with the board in
the package.

Turn the board upside down, so that
bottom side is facing you upwards. Place
shorter parts of the header pins in the
both soldering pad locations.

3
Turn the board upward again. Make sure
to align the headers so that they are
perpendicular to the board, then solder the
pins carefully.
3. Plugging the board in
Once you have soldered the headers your
board is ready to be placed into desired
mikroBUS™ socket. Make sure to align the
cut in the lower-right part of the board
with the markings on the silkscreen at the
mikroBUS™ socket. If all the pins are aligned
correctly, push the board all the way
into the socket.

4. Getting The Data
Communication with the SHT11 sensor is
done using I C interface. Temperature can
2
be represented in 12-bit or 14-bit format
in operating range from -40 to +100°C with
accuracy of !0.5°C at room temperature.
Humidity can be represented in 8-bit or
12-bit resolution with !3% accuracy.
