DHTlib

Arduino library for DHT temperature and humidity sensor. AVR optimized

Description

The DHT11, 21, 22, 33 and 44 are relative inexpensive sensors for measuring temperature and humidity.

This library can be used for reading both values from these DHT sensors. The DHT11 only returns integers (e.g. 20) and does not support negative values. The others are quite similar and provide one decimal digit (e.g. 20.2) The hardware pins of the sensors and handshake are identical so ideal to combine in one lib.

The library (0.1.13 version) is confirmed to work on:

  • UNO (tested myself)
  • 2009 (tested myself)
  • MEGA2560
  • DUE
  • attiny85 @8MHz
  • Digistump Digix @ 84 MHz

Later 0.1.xx versions are optimized for AVR only.

See examples

Versions

  • See changelog.md
  • See DHTNEW or DHTStable library for latest stable version for all platforms.

Future

Must

  • improve documentation

Should

  • separate history versions CHANGELOG.md file ?

Could

  • improve unit tests
    • constants
  • move non public part of #defines to .cpp

Wont

  • updates only on request basis (bugs)
