DHT22 Digital Temperature and Humidity Sensor Module

Description

DHT22 Digital Temperature and Humidity Sensor Module

The DHT22 (also known as AM2302) is a calibrated digital temperature and humidity sensor mounted on a convenient breakout module. It outputs both readings over a single-wire digital interface, so you only need one GPIO pin to read the environment. Compared with the DHT11, the DHT22 offers a wider measurement range and better accuracy — making it a great choice for weather stations, IoT and environmental monitoring.

Features

• Measures both temperature and relative humidity
• Single-wire digital output — uses just one GPIO pin
• Factory-calibrated for accurate readings
• Breakout module with onboard pull-up resistor
• Wide range and higher accuracy than the DHT11
• Works with Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266 and Raspberry Pi
