5.4 Si7021 Relative Humidity and Temperature Sensor

The Si7021 I

C relative humidity and temperature sensor is a monolithic CMOS IC integrating humidity and temperature sensor ele-

ments, an analog-to-digital converter, signal processing, calibration data, and an I

C Interface. The patented use of industry-standard,

low-K polymeric dielectrics for sensing humidity enables the construction of low-power, monolithic CMOS Sensor ICs with low drift and

hysteresis, and excellent long term stability.

The humidity and temperature sensors are factory-calibrated and the calibration data is stored in the on-chip non-volatile memory. This

ensures that the sensors are fully interchangeable, with no recalibration or software changes required.

The Si7021 is available in a 3x3 mm DFN package and is reflow solderable. It can be used as a hardware- and software-compatible

drop-in upgrade for existing RH/ temperature sensors in 3x3 mm DFN-6 packages, featuring precision sensing over a wider range and

lower power consumption. The optional factory-installed cover offers a low profile, convenient means of protecting the sensor during

assembly (e.g., reflow soldering) and throughout the life of the product, excluding liquids (hydrophobic/oleophobic) and particulates.

The Si7021 offers an accurate, low-power, factory-calibrated digital solution ideal for measuring humidity, dew-point, and temperature,

in applications ranging from HVAC/R and asset tracking to industrial and consumer platforms.

The I

C bus used for the Si7021 is shared with the EXP header. The temperature sensor is normally isolated from the I

C line. To use

the sensor, SENSOR_ENABLE (PD15) must be set high. When enabled, the sensor's current consumption is included in the AEM

measurements.
