SHT31
Arduino library for the SHT31 temperature and humidity sensor.
Relates to the SHT85 library - https://github.com/RobTillaart/SHT85
Description
The SHT3x family of sensors should work up to 1 MHz I2C
This library should also work for SHT30 and SHT35 but these are not tested yet.
Accuracy table
| SENSOR | Temperature | Humidity |
|---|---|---|
| SHT30 | ~0.3 | 2.0 |
| SHT31 | ~0.3 | 1.5 |
| SHT35 | ~0.2 | 1.5 |
| SHT85 | ~0.2 | 1.5 |
An elaborated library for the SHT31 sensor can be found here https://github.com/hawesg/SHT31D_Particle_Photon_ClosedCube
Interface
Base interface
- SHT31() constructor.
- bool begin(uint8_t address, uint8_t dataPin, uint8_t clockPin) begin function for ESP8266 & ESP32; returns false if device address is incorrect or device cannot be reset.
- bool begin(uint8_t dataPin, uint8_t clockPin) same as above. With default SHT_DEFAULT_ADDRESS.
- bool begin(uint8_t address, TwoWire *wire = &Wire) for platforms with multiple I2C buses.
- bool begin(TwoWire *wire = &Wire) same as above. With default SHT_DEFAULT_ADDRESS.
- bool read(bool fast = true) blocks 4 (fast) or 15 (slow) milliseconds + actual read + math. Does read both the temperature and humidity.
- bool isConnected() check sensor is reachable over I2C. Returns false if not connected.
- uint16_t readStatus() details see datasheet and Status fields below.
- uint32_t lastRead() in milliSeconds since start of program.
- bool reset(bool hard = false) resets the sensor, soft reset by default. Returns false if it fails.
- float getHumidity() computes the relative humidity in % based on the latest raw reading, and returns it.
- float getTemperature() computes the temperature in <20>C based on the latest raw reading, and returns it.
- float getFahrenheit() computes the temperature in <20>F based on the latest raw reading, and returns it..
- uint16_t getRawHumidity() returns the raw two-byte representation of humidity directly from the sensor.
- uint16_t getRawTemperature() returns the raw two-byte representation of temperature directly from the sensor.
Note that the temperature and humidity values are recalculated on every call to getHumidity() and getTemperature(). If you're worried about the extra cycles, you should make sure to cache these values or only request them after you've performed a new reading.
Error interface
- int getError() returns last set error flag and clear it. Be sure to clear the error flag by calling getError() before calling any command as the error flag could be from a previous command.
| Error | Symbolic | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x00 | SHT31_OK | no error |
| 0x81 | SHT31_ERR_WRITECMD | I2C write failed |
| 0x82 | SHT31_ERR_READBYTES | I2C read failed |
| 0x83 | SHT31_ERR_HEATER_OFF | Could not switch off heater |
| 0x84 | SHT31_ERR_NOT_CONNECT | Could not connect |
| 0x85 | SHT31_ERR_CRC_TEMP | CRC error in temperature |
| 0x86 | SHT31_ERR_CRC_HUM | CRC error in humidity |
| 0x87 | SHT31_ERR_CRC_STATUS | CRC error in status field |
| 0x88 | SHT31_ERR_HEATER_COOLDOWN | Heater need to cool down |
| 0x88 | SHT31_ERR_HEATER_ON | Could not switch on heater |
Heater interface
WARNING: Do not use heater for long periods.
Use the heater for max 180 seconds, and let it cool down 180 seconds = 3 minutes. Version 0.3.3 and up guards the cool down time by preventing switching the heater on within 180 seconds of the last switch off. Note: this guarding is not reboot persistent.
WARNING: The user is responsible to switch the heater off manually!
The class does NOT do this automatically. Switch off the heater by directly calling heatOff() or indirectly by calling isHeaterOn().
- void setHeatTimeout(uint8_t seconds) Set the time out of the heat cycle. This value is truncated to max 180 seconds.
- **uint8_t getHeatTimeout
- bool heatOn() switches heat cycle on if not already on. Returns false if fails, setting error to SHT31_ERR_HEATER_COOLDOWN or to SHT31_ERR_HEATER_ON.
- bool heatOff() switches heat cycle off. Returns false if fails, setting error to SHT31_ERR_HEATER_OFF.
- bool isHeaterOn() is the sensor still in heating cycle? replaces heatUp(). Will switch the heater off if max heating time has passed.
- bool heatUp() will be obsolete in the future. replaced by isHeaterOn()
Async interface
See async example for usage
- bool requestData() requests a new measurement. Returns false if this fails.
- bool dataReady() checks if enough time has passed to read the data. (15 milliseconds)
- bool readData(bool fast = true) fast = true skips the CRC check. Returns false if reading fails or in case of a CRC failure.

Future
- keep in sync with SHT85 library
- check TODO in code
