SHT10 Temperature Humidity Sensor Features
The SHT10 module is a high accuracy sensor for measuring temperature and humidity. This module can be easily connected to a variety of microcontrollers using two digital output pins. One for data transfer and the other for adjusting data transfer speed between the module and the microcontroller. The range of temperature measurement is -40 to +123.8 degrees Celsius with 0.01 degrees Celsius accuracy. The humidity range is 0 to 100% with 0.05% accuracy. This module is also capable of calculating temperature in both degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit.

#include <SHT1x.h>
//Specify data and clock connections and instantiate SHT1x object
#define dataPin 10
#define clockPin 11
SHT1x sht1x(dataPin, clockPin);
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); //Open serial connection to report values to host
Serial.println("Starting up");
}
void loop()
{
float temp_c;
float temp_f;
float humidity;
//Read values from the sensor
temp_c = sht1x.readTemperatureC();
temp_f = sht1x.readTemperatureF();
humidity = sht1x.readHumidity();
//Print the values to the serial port
Serial.print("Temperature: ");
Serial.print(temp_c, DEC);
Serial.print("C / ");
Serial.print(temp_f, DEC);
Serial.print("F. Humidity: ");
Serial.print(humidity);
Serial.println("%");
delay(2000);
}
In this code, the humidity and temperature data are received from the sensor every 2 seconds and appears on the Serial Monitor.
The output is as follows:
