Datasheet SHT21 Humidity and Temperature Sensor Fully calibrated Digital output, I2C interface Low power consumption Excellent long term stability DFN type package – reflow solderable Product Summary SHT21, the new humidity and temperature sensor of Sensirion is about to set new standards in terms of size and intelligence: Embedded in a reflow solderable Dual Flat No leads (DFN) package of 3 x 3mm foot print and 1.1mm height it provides calibrated, linearized signals in digital, true I2C format. With a completely new designed CMOSens® chip, a reworked capacitive type humidity sensor and an improved band gap temperature sensor the performance has been lifted even beyond the outstanding level of the previous sensor generation (SHT1x and SHT7x). For example, measures have been taken to stabilize the behavior at high humidity levels. Dimensions Every sensor is individually calibrated and tested. Lot identification is printed on the sensor and an electronic identification code is stored on the chip – which can be read out by command. Furthermore, the resolution of SHT21 can be changed by command (8/12bit up to 12/14bit for RH/T), low battery can be detected and a checksum helps to improve communication reliability. With made improvements and the miniaturization of the sensor the performance-to-price ratio has been improved – and eventually, any device should benefit from the cutting edge energy saving operation mode. For testing SHT21 a new evaluation Kit EK-H4 is available. Sensor Chip 3.0 SHT21 features a generation 4C CMOSens® chip. Besides the capacitive relative humidity sensor and the band gap temperature sensor, the chip contains an amplifier, A/D converter, OTP memory and a digital processing unit. 2.0 typ 1.4 typ 3.0 SHT21 D0AC4 0.3 typ 0.8 typ 0.2 0.3 Bottom View NC VDD SCL 0.75 0.4 Material Contents 1.1 2.2 While the sensor itself is made of Silicon the sensors’ housing consists of a plated Cu lead-frame and green epoxy-based mold compound.

Version 1.0 – January 2010 2/12 Datasheet SHT21 Users Guide SHT2x 2 Application Information 1.1 Operating Range The sensor works stable within recommended Normal Range – see Figure 4. Long term exposure to conditions outside Normal Range, especially at humidity >80%RH, may temporarily offset the RH signal (+3%RH after 60h). After return into the Normal Range it will slowly return towards calibration state by itself. See Section 2.3 “Reconditioning Procedure” for eliminating the offset. Prolonged exposure to extreme conditions may accelerate ageing. 2.1 Soldering Instructions The DFN’s die pad (centre pad) and perimeter I/O pads are fabricated from a planar copper lead-frame by overmolding leaving the die pad and I/O pads exposed for mechanical and electrical connection. Both the I/O pads and die pad should be soldered to the PCB. In order to prevent oxidation and optimize soldering, the bottom side of the sensor pads is plated with Ni/Pd/Au.

For other temperatures maximal tolerance has been evaluated to be within limits displayed in Figure 58. On the PCB the I/O lands9 should be 0.2mm longer than the package I/O pads. Inward corners may be rounded to match the I/O pad shape. The I/O land width should match the DFN-package I/O-pads width 1:1 and the land for the die pad should match 1:1 with the DFN package – see Figure 6. The solder mask10 design for the land pattern preferably is of type Non-Solder Mask Defined (NSMD) with solder mask openings larger than metal pads. For NSMD pads, the solder mask opening should be about 120µm to 150µm larger than the pad size, providing a 60µm to 75µm design clearance between the copper pad and solder mask. Rounded portions of package pads should have a matching rounded solder mask-opening shape to minimize the risk of solder bridging. For the actual pad dimensions, each pad on the PCB should have its own solder mask opening with a web of solder mask between adjacent pads. 0.2 ±5 ±7 ±8 0.4 ±5 0.3 0.7 ±6 ±5 ±4 ±3 ±6 ±5 ±3 ±3 ±4 ±6 2.4 0.2 ±4 1.6 Relative Humidity (%RH) 0.4 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 ±4 ±5 ±5 ±7 1.0 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 Temperature (°C) Figure 5 Maximal tolerance of relative humidity measurements given in %RH for temperatures 0 – 80°C.

Die pad (centre pad) and NC pads may be left floating or be connected to ground. The outer dotted line represents the outer dimension of the DFN package. For solder paste printing a laser-cut, stainless steel stencil with electro-polished trapezoidal walls and with 0.125mm stencil thickness is recommended. For the I/O pads the stencil apertures should be 0.1mm longer than PCB pads and positioned with 0.1mm offset away from the centre of 9 8 Details on how Sensirion is specifying and testing accuracy performance are planned to be published on the Sensirion web page. www.sensirion.com The land pattern is understood to be the metal layer on the PCB, onto which the DFN pads are soldered to. 10 The solder mask is understood to be the insulating layer on top of the PCB covering the connecting lines. Version 1.0 – January 2010 3/12 Datasheet SHT21 the package. The die pad aperture should cover about 70 – 90% of the pad area – say up to 1.4mm x 2.3mm centered on the thermal land area. It can also be split in two openings. Due to the low mounted height of the DFN, “no clean” type 3 solder paste11 is recommended as well as Nitrogen purge during reflow. tP Temperature TP TL tL TS (max) preheating critical zone Time Figure 7 Soldering profile according to JEDEC standard. TP <= 260°C and tP < 40sec for Pb-free assembly. TL < 220°C and tL < 150sec. Ramp-up/down speeds shall be < 5°C/sec. It is important to note that the diced edge or side faces of the I/O pads may oxidise over time, therefore a solder fillet may or may not form. Hence there is no guarantee for solder joint fillet heights of any kind. For soldering SHT2x, standard reflow soldering ovens may be used. The sensor is qualified to withstand soldering profile according to IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D with peak temperatures at 260°C during up to 40sec for Pb-free assembly in IR/Convection reflow ovens (see Figure 7). For manual soldering contact time must be limited to 5 seconds at up to 350°C12. IMPORTANT: After soldering, the devices should be stored at >75%RH for at least 12h to allow the sensor element to re-hydrate. Otherwise the sensor may read an offset that slowly disappears if exposed to ambient conditions. Alternatively the re-hydration process may be performed at ambient conditions (>40%RH) during more than 5 days. In no case, neither after manual nor reflow soldering, a board wash shall be applied. Therefore, and as mentioned above, it is strongly recommended to use “no-clean” solder paste. In case of applications with exposure of the sensor to corrosive gases the soldering pads shall be sealed to prevent loose contacts or short cuts. 2.2 Storage Conditions and Handling Instructions Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is 2; hence storage time is limited to one year. 11 Solder types are related to the solder particle size in the paste: Type 3 covers the size range of 25 – 45 µm (powder type 42). 12 260°C = 500°F, 350°C = 662°F www.sensirion.com It is of great importance to understand that a humidity sensor is not a normal electronic component and needs to be handled with care. Chemical vapors at high concentration in combination with long exposure times may offset the sensor reading. For this reason it is recommended to store the sensors in original packaging including the sealed ESD bag at following conditions: Temperature shall be in the range of 10°C – 50°C and humidity at 20 – 60%RH (sensors that are not stored in ESD bags). For sensors that have been removed from the original packaging we recommend to store them in ESD bags made of PE-HD13. In manufacturing and transport the sensors shall be prevented of high concentration of chemical solvents and long exposure times. Out-gassing of glues, adhesive tapes and stickers or out-gassing packaging material such as bubble foils, foams, etc. shall be avoided. Manufacturing area shall be well ventilated. For more detailed information please consult the document “Handling Instructions” or contact Sensirion. 2.3 Reconditioning Procedure As stated above extreme conditions or exposure to solvent vapors may offset the sensor. The following reconditioning procedure may bring the sensor back to calibration state: Baking: Re-Hydration: 100 – 105°C at < 5%RH for 10h 20 – 30°C at ~ 75%RH for 12h 14. 2.4 Temperature Effects Relative humidity reading strongly depends on temperature. Therefore, it is essential to keep humidity sensors at the same temperature as the air of which the relative humidity is to be measured. In case of testing or qualification the reference sensor and test sensor must show equal temperature to allow for comparing humidity readings. If the sensor shares a PCB with electronic components that produce heat it should be mounted in a way that prevents heat transfer or keeps it as low as possible. Measures to reduce heat transfer can be ventilation, reduction of copper layers between the sensor and the rest of the PCB or milling a slit into the PCB around the sensor – see Figure 8. Furthermore, there are self-heating effects in case the measurement frequency is too high. To keep self heating below 0.1°C, SHT2x should not be active for more than 10% of the time – e.g. maximum two measurements per second at 12bit accuracy shall be made. 13 14 For example, 3M antistatic bag, product “1910” with zipper. 75%RH can conveniently be generated with saturated NaCl solution. 100 – 105°C correspond to 212 – 221°F, 20 – 30°C correspond to 68 – 86°F Version 1.0 – January 2010 4/12 Datasheet SHT21 3 Interface Specifications Figure 8 Top view of example of mounted SHT2x with slits milled into PCB to minimize heat transfer. 2.5 Light The SHT2x is not light sensitive. Prolonged direct exposure to sunshine or strong UV radiation may age the sensor. 2.6 Materials Used for Sealing / Mounting Many materials absorb humidity and will act as a buffer increasing response times and hysteresis. Materials in the vicinity of the sensor must therefore be carefully chosen. Recommended materials are: Any metals, LCP, POM (Delrin), PTFE (Teflon), PEEK, PP, PB, PPS, PSU, PVDF, PVF. For sealing and gluing (use sparingly): Use high filled epoxy for electronic packaging (e.g. glob top, underfill), and Silicone. Out-gassing of these materials may also contaminate the sensor (see Section 1.3). Therefore try to add the sensor as a last manufacturing step to the assembly, store the assembly well ventilated after manufacturing or bake at >50°C for 24h to outgas contaminants before packing. 4 3 5 2 6 1 Table 2 SHT2x pin assignment, NC remain floating 3.1 Power Pins (VDD, VSS) The supply voltage of SHT2x must be in the range of 2.1 – 3.6V, recommended supply voltage is 3.0V. Power supply pins Supply Voltage (VDD) and Ground (VSS) must be decoupled with a 100nF capacitor, that shall be placed as close to the sensor as possible – see Figure 9. 3.2 Serial clock (SCL) SCL is used to synchronize the communication between microcontroller (MCU) and the sensor. Since the interface consists of fully static logic there is no minimum SCL frequency. 3.3 Serial SDA (SDA) The SDA pin is used to transfer data in and out of the sensor. For sending a command to the sensor, SDA is valid on the rising edge of SCL and must remain stable while SCL is high. After the falling edge of SCL the SDA value may be changed. For safe communication SDA shall be valid tSU and tHD before the rising and after the falling edge of SCL, respectively – see Figure 10. For reading data from the sensor, SDA is valid tVD after SCL has gone low and remains valid until the next falling edge of SCL. VDD MCU (master) SCL IN RP RP SCL SCL OUT SDA IN SHT2x (slave) SDA C = 100nF 2.7 Wiring Considerations and Signal Integrity Carrying the SCL and SDA signal parallel and in close proximity (e.g. in wires) for more than 10cm may result in cross talk and loss of communication. This may be resolved by routing VDD and/or VSS between the two SDA signals and/or using shielded cables. Furthermore, slowing down SCL frequency will possibly improve signal integrity. Power supply pins (VDD, VSS) must be decoupled with a 100nF capacitor – see next Section.

To avoid signal contention the micro-controller unit (MCU) must only drive SDA and SCL low. External pull-up resistors (e.g. 10kΩ), are required to pull the signal high. For the choice of resistor size please take bus capacity requirements into account (compare Table 5). It should be noted that pull-up resistors may be included in I/O circuits www.sensirion.com Version 1.0 – January 2010 5/12 Datasheet SHT21 1/fSCK of MCUs.

For exposure beyond named limits the sensor needs additional protection circuit. 4.2 Input / Output Characteristics The electrical characteristics such as power consumption, low and high level input and output voltages depend on the supply voltage.

Please note that all sensors are set to the same I2C address, as defined in Section 5.3. 15 Furthermore, please note, that Sensirion provides a sample code on its home page – compare www.sensirion.com/sht21. 5.1 Start Up Sensor As a first step, the sensor is powered up to the chosen supply voltage VDD (between 2.1 V and 3.6 V). After power-up, the sensor needs at most 15 ms, while SCL is high, for reaching idle state, i.e. to be ready accepting 15 For sensors with alternative I2C address please contact Sensirion via [email protected]. www.sensirion.com Version 1.0 – January 2010 6/12 Datasheet SHT21 70% SCL 30% 70% SDA 30% Figure 11 Transmission Start Condition (S) - a high to low transition on the SDA line while SCL is high. The Start condition is a unique state on the bus created by the master, indicating to the slaves the beginning of a transmission sequence (bus is considered busy after a Start). In the hold master mode, the SHT2x pulls down the SCL line while measuring to force the master into a wait state. By releasing the SCL line the sensor indicates that internal processing is terminated and that transmission may be continued. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 S 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 70% SCL 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 1 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 I2C address + write ACK 5.2 Start / Stop Sequence Each transmission sequence begins with Start condition (S) and ends with Stop condition (P) as displayed in Figure 11 and Figure 12. 5.4 Hold / No Hold Master Mode There are two different operation modes to communicate with the sensor: Hold Master mode or No Hold Master mode. In the first case the SCL line is blocked (controlled by sensor) during measurement process while in the latter case the SCL line remains open for other communication while the sensor is processing the measurement. No hold master mode allows for processing other I2C communication tasks on a bus while the sensor is measuring. A communication sequence of the two modes is displayed in Figure 13 and Figure 14, respectively. ACK commands from the master (MCU). Current consumption during start up is 350µA maximum. Command (see Table 6) 30% Figure 12 Transmission Stop Condition (P) - a low to high transition on the SDA line while SCL is high. The Stop condition is a unique state on the bus created by the master, indicating to the slaves the end of a transmission sequence (bus is considered free after a Stop). 5.3 Sending a Command After sending the Start condition, the subsequent I2C header consists of the 7-bit I2C device address ‘1000’000’ and an SDA direction bit (Read R: ‘1’, Write W: ‘0’). The sensor indicates the proper reception of a byte by pulling the SDA pin low (ACK bit) after the falling edge of the 8th SCL clock. After the issue of a measurement command (‘1110’0011’ for temperature, ‘1110’0101’ for relative humidity’), the MCU must wait for the measurement to complete. The basic commands are summarized in Table 6. Hold master or no hold master modes are explained in next Section.

Bit 45 may be changed to NACK followed by Stop condition (P) to omit checksum transmission. In no hold master mode, the MCU has to poll for the termination of the internal processing of the sensor. This is done by sending a Start condition followed by the I2C header (1000’0001) as shown in Figure 14. If the internal processing is finished, the sensor acknowledges the poll of the MCU and data can be read by the MCU. If the measurement processing is not finished the sensor answers no ACK bit and the Start condition must be issued once more. For both modes, since the maximum resolution of a measurement is 14 bit, the two last LSBs (bits 43 and 44) are used for transmitting status information. Bit 1 of the two LSBs indicates the measurement type (‘0’: temperature, ‘1’ humidity). Bit 0 is currently not assigned.

In this example, the resolution is set to 8bit / 12bit. 5.7 CRC Checksum For implementing CRC8 checksum please refer to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/crc8). 5.8 Serial Number SHT21 provides an electronic identification code. For instructions on how to read the identification code please refer to the Application Note “Electronic Identification Code” – to be downloaded from the web page www.sensirion.com/SHT21. 6 Conversion of Signal Output Default resolution is set to 12 bit relative humidity and 14 bit temperature reading. Measured data are transferred in two byte packages, i.e. in frames of 8 bit length where the most significant bit (MSB) is transferred first (left aligned). Each byte is followed by an acknowledge bit. The two status bits, the last bits of LSB, must be set to ‘0’ before calculating physical values. In the example of Figure 13 and Figure 14, the transferred 16 bit relative humidity data is ‘0110’0011’0101’0000’ = 25424. 6.1 Relative Humidity Conversion With the relative humidity signal output SRH the relative humidity RH is obtained by the following formula (result in %RH), no matter which resolution is chosen: S RH 6 125 RH 216 In the example given in Figure 13 and Figure 14 the relative humidity results to be 42.5%RH. The physical value RH given above corresponds to the relative humidity above liquid water according to World www.sensirion.com Meteorological Organization (WMO). For relative humidity above ice RHi the values need to be transformed from relative humidity above water RHw at temperature t. The equation is given in the following, compare also Application Note “Introduction to Humidity: β t RH i RH w exp w λw t β t exp i λi t Units are %RH for relative humidity and °C for temperature. The corresponding coefficients are defined as follows: βw = 17.62, λw = 243.12°C, βi = 22.46, λi = 272.62°C. 6.2 Temperature Conversion The temperature T is calculated by inserting temperature signal output ST into the following formula (result in °C), no matter which resolution is chosen: T 46.85 175.72 ST 216 7 Environmental Stability The SHT2x sensor series were tested according to AECQ100 Rev. F qualification test method. Sensor specifications are tested to prevail under the AEC-Q100 temperature grade 2 test conditions listed in Table 917. Sensor performance under other test conditions cannot be guaranteed and is not part of the sensor specifications. Especially, no guarantee can be given for sensor performance in the field or for customer’s specific application. Environment Standard HTSL 125°C, 1000 hours TC UHST -50°C - 125°C, 1000 cycles Acc.

Version 1.0 – January 2010 9/12 Datasheet SHT21 If sensors are qualified for reliability and behavior in extreme conditions, please make sure that they experience same conditions as the reference sensor. It should be taken into account that response times in assemblies may be longer, hence enough dwell time for the measurement shall be granted. For detailed information please consult Application Note “Qualification Guide”. 8 Packaging 8.1 Lot No.: Quantity: RoHS: XXO-NN-YRRRRTTTT RRRR Compliant Lot No. Figure 18: First label on reel: XX = Sensor Type (21 for SHT21), O = Output mode (D = Digital, P = PWM, S = SDM), NN = Chip Version, Y = last digit of year, RRRR = number of sensors on reel, TTTT = Traceability Code. Packaging Type SHT2x sensors are provided in DFN packaging (in analogy with QFN packaging). DFN stands for Dual Flat No leads. The marking on the sensor consists of two lines with five digits each. The first line denotes the sensor type (SHT21). The first digit of the second line defines the output mode (D = digital, Sensibus and I2C, P = PWM, S = SDM). The second digit defines the manufacturing year (0 = 2010, 1 = 2011, etc.). The last three digits represent an alphanumeric tracking code. That code can be decoded by Sensirion only and allows for tracking on batch level through production, calibration and testing – and will be provided upon justified request. 8.4 Shipping Package SHT2x are provided in tape & reel shipment packaging, sealed into antistatic ESD bags. Standard packaging sizes are 400, 1500 and 5000 units per reel. For SHT21, each reel contains 440mm (55 pockets) header tape and 200mm (25 pockets) trailer tape. The drawing of the packaging tapes with sensor orientation is shown in Figure 20.
