Description

Product Description

The standalone, high-precision DHT22 (AM2302) sensor is a premium digital temperature and relative humidity transmitter, designed for environmental tracking in professional HVAC, greenhouse, and smart meteorological projects. Unlike pre-mounted modules, this bare 4-pin sensor package is tailored for custom PCB integration, compact spatial enclosures, and direct system engineering. Inside its durable white grid-vented polymer shell sits a capacitive moisture sensing element and a high-accuracy NTC thermistor, fully paired with a custom 8-bit digital processing core. By outputting calibrated, noise-resistant single-bus data, this sensor ensures highly accurate readings even over transmission distances up to 20 meters, making it the perfect component for custom industrial IoT nodes and micro-climate loggers.

Pinout / Layout Connections

The bare sensor package exposes 4 metallic pin terminals (spaced at a standard 2.54mm pitch):

    • Pin 1 (VDD): Main power supply input. Accepts a stable DC +3.3V to +5.5V.

    • Pin 2 (SDA): Bidirectional single-wire digital data bus. Connects directly to a digital microcontroller I/O pin.

    • Crucial Setup: A $4.7\text{ k}\Omega$ to $10\text{ k}\Omega$ pull-up resistor must be connected between Pin 2 (SDA) and Pin 1 (VDD) to maintain correct logic levels on bare sensor lines.

    • Pin 3 (NC): No Connection. Leave completely open/unconnected.

    • Pin 4 (GND): Connects to the common system ground (0V) reference.

Interfacing DHT22/DHT11 with Arduino uno - Hackster.io

Applications

  • Custom Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs): Perfect for integration into professional embedded systems, custom multi-sensor shields, and space-constrained smart enclosures.

  • HVAC Climate Controllers: Excellent for direct integration into remote wall-mounted thermostat ducts, monitoring ducts, and automated air intake grilles.

  • Long-Distance Weather Probes: Ideal for mounting inside custom weather radiation shields with long, shielded cabling runs back to a centralized microcontrol unit.

Compatibility

The DHT22 standalone sensor runs on a dedicated single-bus serial protocol, ensuring wide compatibility when correctly biased with a pull-up resistor:

  • All Arduino Boards (Uno, Nano, Mega, Pro Micro) using Adafruit’s standard DHT.h library.

  • ESP32 and ESP8266 development boards (Highly stable at native 3.3V power levels).

  • Raspberry Pi and Raspberry Pi Pico boards (Communicates smoothly via CircuitPython or MicroPython scripts).
