 PROJECT: Temperature and Humidity Display
This project will show air temperature in C and F, and % Humidity on an LCD display. The parts that make up this system are:
  • An Arduino
  • A DHT11 Humidity and Temperature Sensor (uses only 1 Arduino pin)
  • An I2C interface LCD Display ( uses only 2 Arduino pins) NOTE: This examples uses the Version 1 Display shown on this page:Humidity-Temp-Display1-500.jpg
    • A Sensor Shield 
    • Cables (free with Sensor/Display)
  • The Software Sketch below

DHT-22 Humidity-Temperature Sensor

Here we will show how to connect Arduino to an electronic sensor to make these measurements: The DHT11  and DHT22 are relative cheap sensors for measuring temperature and humidity. The DHT22 is similar to the DHT11 but has a greater accuracy and temperature range. (DHT22 shown on right, DHT11 above).(Available here)

The DHT11/22 has three lines, +5V ,a single Signal line, and GND. The connections are as shown on the right photo. NOTE: The third pin is unused. By means of a handshake the values are clocked out over the single signal line. The data formats are different but a library (below, by Rob Tillaart) makes these easy for you to use. More details and updates will be found on Rob's page on the Arduino Playground.

To use these sensors, you have to connect them to V (Arduino +5V), S (An Arduino I/O pin), and G (Arduino GND).

DETAILS: Before you can use an "Arduino Software Library", you must make it available by copying it into the correct "libraries" folder. To use the library, unzip the file below into your SKETCHBOOKPATH\libraries.

Here is a .ZIP file available with these files for easier installation: DHT11.zip
