Sensirion Temperature/Humidity sensors are some of the finest & highest-accuracy devices you can get. And finally, we have some that have a true I2C interface for easy reading. The SHT45 sensor is the fourth generation (started at the SHT10 and worked its way up to the top!). The SHT45 has an excellent ±1.0% typical relative humidity accuracy from 25 to 75% and ±0.1°C typical accuracy from 0 to 75 °C.

Unlike some earlier SHT sensors, this sensor has a true I2C interface for easy interfacing with only two wires (plus power and ground!). Thanks to the voltage regulator and level-shifting circuitry we've included on the breakout It is also 3V or 5V compliant, so you can power and communicate with it using any microcontroller or microcomputer.

Such a lovely chip - so we spun up a breakout board with the SHT45 and some supporting circuitry such as pullup resistors and capacitors. To make things even easier, we've included SparkFun Qwiic compatible STEMMA QT connectors for the I2C bus so you don't even need to solder! QT Cable is NOT included.

If you prefer working on a breadboard, each order comes with one fully assembled and tested PCB breakout and a small piece of header. You'll need to solder the header onto the PCB, but it's fairly easy and takes only a few minutes even for a beginner. 

We've written both Arduino and CircuitPython/Python library code for this chip, so you can use it with just about any microcontroller or single-board computer like Raspberry Pi.

Two variants are available: Without PTFE and With PTFE. Please select an option before adding it to your cart! Find out more about PTFE further down.

Specifications

SHT45-AD1F-R2 specifications:

  • PTFE Filter cover for protection (Optional Variant)

The filter membrane option for SHT4x family members inherently provides an additional barrier for all pollutants to enter the sensor opening, thus lowering negative influences on the sensing element. Mostly designed to keep particles and dust from accumulating and reducing the response time, the membrane also enables more efficient and easy cleaning, as it helps to reduce liquid intrusion into the sensor opening. Even though not selectively filtering, in general, physical barriers allow for the reduction of the amount of unwanted chemical contamination and help to remove potentially harmful components by facilitating wiping (flat sensor surface).
The integrated SHT4x PTFE membrane provides additional protection from particles and enables sensor operation in harsh conditions (according to IP67). The membrane has a thickness of 100 µm offering a filtration efficiency of >99.99% for particles of 200 nm size and larger. Owing to the high permeability and the small volume between the sensing element and membrane, the specified response time of the RH sensor is unaltered.
