Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This driver implements support for the Sensirion SHT3x-DIS chip, a humidity
|
|
and temperature sensor. Temperature is measured in degrees celsius, relative
|
|
humidity is expressed as a percentage. In the sysfs interface, all values are
|
|
scaled by 1000, i.e. the value for 31.5 degrees celsius is 31500.
|
|
|
|
The device communicates with the I2C protocol. Sensors can have the I2C
|
|
addresses 0x44 or 0x45, depending on the wiring. See
|
|
Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices for methods to instantiate the device.
|
|
|
|
There are two options configurable by means of sht3x_platform_data:
|
|
1. blocking (pull the I2C clock line down while performing the measurement) or
|
|
non-blocking mode. Blocking mode will guarantee the fastest result but
|
|
the I2C bus will be busy during that time. By default, non-blocking mode
|
|
is used. Make sure clock-stretching works properly on your device if you
|
|
want to use blocking mode.
|
|
2. high or low accuracy. High accuracy is used by default and using it is
|
|
strongly recommended.
|
|
|
|
The sht3x sensor supports a single shot mode as well as 5 periodic measure
|
|
modes, which can be controlled with the update_interval sysfs interface.
|
|
The allowed update_interval in milliseconds are as follows:
|
|
* 0 single shot mode
|
|
* 2000 0.5 Hz periodic measurement
|
|
* 1000 1 Hz periodic measurement
|
|
* 500 2 Hz periodic measurement
|
|
* 250 4 Hz periodic measurement
|
|
* 100 10 Hz periodic measurement
|
|
|
|
In the periodic measure mode, the sensor automatically triggers a measurement
|
|
with the configured update interval on the chip. When a temperature or humidity
|
|
reading exceeds the configured limits, the alert attribute is set to 1 and
|
|
the alert pin on the sensor is set to high.
|
|
When the temperature and humidity readings move back between the hysteresis
|
|
values, the alert bit is set to 0 and the alert pin on the sensor is set to
|
|
low.
