(1) Electrical Characteristics Table values apply only for factory testing conditions at the temperature indicated. Factory testing conditions result in very limited self-heating of the device such that TJ = TA. No guarantee of parametric performance is indicated in the electrical tables under conditions of internal self-heating where TJ > TA. Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate junction temperature limits beyond which the device may be permanently degraded, either mechanically or electrically.
(2) Register values are represented as either binary (b is the prefix to the digits), or hexadecimal (0x is the prefix to the digits). Decimal values have no prefix.
(3) Limits are ensured by testing, design, or statistical analysis at 30°C. Limits over the operating temperature range are ensured through correlations using statistical quality control (SQC) method.
(4) Typical values represent the most likely parametric norm as determined at the time of characterization. Actual typical values may vary over time and will also depend on the application and configuration. The typical values are not tested and are not guaranteed on shipped production material.
(5) I2C read/write communication and pull-up resistors current through SCL and SDA not included.
(6) Average current consumption while conversion is in progress.
(7) This parameter is specified by design and/or characterization and it is not tested in production.
(8) The hysteresis value is the difference between an RH measurement in a rising and falling RH environment, at a specific RH point.
(9) Actual response times will vary dependent on system thermal mass and air-flow.
(10) Time for the RH output to change by 63% of the total RH change after a step change in environmental humidity.
(11) Recommended humidity operating range is 10% to 70% RH. Prolonged operation outside this range may result in a measurement offset. The measurement offset will decrease after operating the sensor in this recommended operating range.
(12) Drift due to aging effects at typical conditions (30°C and 20% to 50% RH). This value may be impacted by dust, vaporized solvents, out-gassing tapes, adhesives, packaging materials, etc.
