AM2302 output calibrated digital signal. It applies exclusive digital-signal-collecting-technique and humidity sensing technology, assuring its reliability and stability. Its sensing elements are connected to an 8-bit single-chip computer. Every sensor of this model is temperature compensated and calibrated in an accurate calibration chamber and the calibration coefficient is saved in the type of program in OTP memory when the sensor is detecting, it will cite the coefficient from memory. Small size & low consumption & long transmission distance(100m) enable AM2302 to be suited for all kinds of harsh application occasions. Single-row packaged with four pins, making the connection very convenient.
