The humidity will decrease when the chip is heated.

The chip assumes it's temperature, is the air temperature. For a given amount of moisture in the air, the RH is lower the hotter the air is. Heat the chip, and the RH measure will fall.

Bad Sensor.. Closing thread
PostPosted: Wed Jul 06, 2016 4:35 am     Reply with quote

After a lot of testing, I find that both my sensors are damaged and giving wrong reading.

The updated driver code that was updated here works.

I am closing this thread and marking it as solved.

Crying or Very sad

Sad. I just spent two days debugging why a unit wouldn't do what I expected to find it was a faulty moulding hidden inside a connector system...

Happens I'm afraid.

Thanks for your time

Thanks Mr T.

I closed the thread because I ordered new sensors. It will take 1 month to get delivered.

Its good not to keep threads open.

Re: SHT21 - updated driver code.
PostPosted: Thu Jan 11, 2018 8:43 pm     Reply with quote

int16 humidum; should be ...
uint16 humidum;
Else, when humidum is more then 55%, this var will be a negative. Also change this --- int16 temperies;

Hi All,

as a comment to the above, the reason 'int16' was used, is that on a PIC16 or 18, with CCS, a int16, by default _is_ unsigned. So the problem won't occur. It will only be a problem if the code is moved to a PIC24/30/33, where the default int16, is signed. It is better to be explicit, but this is 'why' this was not seen by some people.... Very Happy

Thx! I just use PIC24 series.

And I have changed the calc code to int from float, it should save CPU resource.
Code:

void sht21_HT(void){ //float &temperies1,float &humidum1){
   uint8 msbX, lsbX;
   uint16 uiX,humidum;
   int16 iValue;
   int32 lValue;  //  float temperiess;
   i2c_start();   i2c_write(sht21);    i2c_write(temphold);
   i2c_start();   i2c_write(read);
   msbX = i2c_read();
   lsbX = i2c_read(0);
   lsbX &= 0XFC;    //checksum = i2c_read(0);
   i2c_stop();
   uiX = make16(msbX,lsbX);//valiable = MAKE16(varhigh, varlow) junta las
   lValue=uiX;  //   lValue+=(372.95*30);  //-25deg=373*25
   lValue=(lValue*17572)/65536-4685;
   iValue = lValue;
   //temperies1= (-46.85 + (175.72*((float)uiX/65536)));

   delay_ms(10);  //T=85mS H=29mS 
  i2c_start();   i2c_write(sht21);  i2c_write(humidhold);
   i2c_start();  i2c_write(read);
   msbX = i2c_read();
   lsbX = i2c_read(0);
   lsbX &= 0XFC;   //checksum = i2c_read(0);
   i2c_stop();
   uiX = make16(msbX,lsbX);//valiable = MAKE16(varhigh, varlow) junta las
//   humidum1= (-6 + (125.0/65536*uiX));
   uiX>>=2;   uiX = uiX/13-60;  //*10 Humidum%
   //temperiess=uiX;

}

Could you give my any advice for i2c setting?
I use the I2C1 force_hw, it have 2 selection in wizard, the default is B8/B9, I want set to A0/A1 but the wizard program no any difference in generate code. What can I do? Thx!

You need to tell us your chip.....

The odds are that it is a fuse (most chips offering just two addresses have these selected this way).

There would be no difference in the code, except for the fuse to change the pins used.

Do NOT rely on the'wizard' ! You can easily cut code without it AND you'll be a better programmer for doing so.
The 'wizard' is just one person's idea of how to setup a PIC,NOT yours or mine. It can easily have a 'bug' in it saying 'this' but coding 'that' and you'll waste a a lot of time trying to figure out what you did wrong when it's the 'wizards' fault. I say the same about 'Proteus' all the time..it's full of errors yet code 'compiles' that will never, ever work in the Real World.
Read the I2C section of the MSSP of the datasheet, 2, 3, 20 times whatever it takes so that you understand the peripheral, it's registers and options. Read a book like 'How I2C works'.... and of course read the CCS manual chapters for I2C functions.
The more you read, the more you'll learn. I understand English is hard and I grew up with it ! PICs by their nature are technical and new ones are very complicated BUT once you understand them it all makes sense.
