TIHDC2021DEBR
Overview
The HDC2021DEBR is an integrated digital humidity and temperature sensor that provides high-accuracy measurements over a wide supply voltage range of 1.62V to 3.6V. It features a factory-installed polyimide tape over the sensor opening to protect the sensing element during automated assembly and harsh PCB cleaning processes. Designed for low-power operation, it consumes only 50nA in sleep mode and supports both one-shot and continuous measurement modes via an I2C interface.
Why Choose This Part
The device offers exceptional power efficiency with a typical sleep current of 50nA, significantly extending battery life in remote deployments. The integrated protective tape simplifies manufacturing by allowing the sensor to remain shielded during reflow and wash cycles. Additionally, its wide operating temperature range of -40C to +125C ensures reliability in demanding industrial environments.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Engineers can evaluate this sensor using the HDC2021EVM evaluation module and Texas Instruments GUI tools to visualize real-time data. The I2C interface is compatible with standard microcontrollers; use the 14-bit resolution setting for maximum precision. Ensure the PCB layout includes a thermal relief cutout around the sensor to improve response time and accuracy by minimizing heat transfer from the board.
