Re: AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

well a ghetto design would likely be something like this http://www.vibrationschool.com/mans/DBSetup/Trdxr03.html the parts to overexercise brain cells for it (i.e. think) is that spring, magnets, the mass, then convert the analog voltages first to velocity then to acceleration and how to power it ...

Re: AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

They are sold for quite a premium https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11744 https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?catId=0&SearchText=geophone one of those aspects that had me procrastinating about making a ghetto geophone is that for 99.9% of times, it probably detect nothing and arbitrary noises....

Re: AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

one of those things that i've wanted to do with inductive sensing is to make voice coil accelerometers, but didn't get down to trying it :lol: http://roevalley.com/newsbrowser/interface/quake.htm That looks interesting - but the picture does not really show details of the construction of his "...

Re: AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

If that is an AHT10, that looks fairly close to our guesses. for that 'thin film' I'd guess ordinary paper glue is possibly close enough. This is an picture of an AHT10 found on an russian site. There was the picture of the complete breakout PCB, but the picture was to big to upload. And the hard p...

Re: AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

the trouble with the analog world is it is really *analog*, equations and all are 'too perfect' for this real world around us, otherwise a humidity sensor is simply a capacitor with a piece of paper sandwiched in between. When everything would be so easy as to implement some tables to compensate no...

now you are left with the 'labor intensive' parts :lol:
This is really an interesting idea.
Just build your own sensor instead of struggling with an I2C bus. :lol:

Re: AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

The AHT10 humidity sensor has the problem that only one device of it can be connected with an I2C bus. This is remarked in the datasheet. ... STrange: 1. I have been using an AHT10 with other I2C devices on the same I2C bus for months now. 2. I cannot find any mention of "the problem that only...

Re: AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

The term "more compatible" is far too broad to be used here without context and acknowledgment of limitations and caveats. It is, a hack but a well executed one. Nicely documented source code. Compatible with the (working) I2C-Standards. The AHT20 is a true I2C-Device and the AHT10 can be...

Re: AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

The software-only solution is less costly, but the hardware allows use of the internal microcontroller I2C hardware and "may" be more compatible with existing software (pre-written) code. It's less costly and more compatible to use an AHT20, if you want to use more then a humidity sensor....

AHT10 humidity sensor over Software I2C

The AHT10 humidity sensor has the problem that only one device of it can be connected with an I2C bus. This is remarked in the datasheet. When you want to connect other I2C devices you must use an AHT20 ! When you don't want to block an I2C bus for an AHT10 you can use a software I2C. The Software-I...
