| Description
 | |
| -----------
 | |
| 
 | |
| The SHT21 and SHT25 are humidity and temperature sensors in a DFN package of
 | |
| only 3 x 3 mm footprint and 1.1 mm height. The difference between the two
 | |
| devices is the higher level of precision of the SHT25 (1.8% relative humidity,
 | |
| 0.2 degree Celsius) compared with the SHT21 (2.0% relative humidity,
 | |
| 0.3 degree Celsius).
 | |
| 
 | |
| The devices communicate with the I2C protocol. All sensors are set to the same
 | |
| I2C address 0x40, so an entry with I2C_BOARD_INFO("sht21", 0x40) can be used
 | |
| in the board setup code.

| Notes
 | |
| -----
 | |
| 
 | |
| The driver uses the default resolution settings of 12 bit for humidity and 14
 | |
| bit for temperature, which results in typical measurement times of 22 ms for
 | |
| humidity and 66 ms for temperature. To keep self heating below 0.1 degree
 | |
| Celsius, the device should not be active for more than 10% of the time,
 | |
| e.g. maximum two measurements per second at the given resolution.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Different resolutions, the on-chip heater, using the CRC checksum and reading
 | |
| the serial number are not supported yet.
