Your specialist in innovating humidity & temperature sensors Digital relative humidity & temperature sensor AM2303 1. Feature & Application: *High precision *Capacitive type *Full range temperature compensated *Relative humidity and temperature measurement *Calibrated digital signal *Outstanding long-term stability *Extra components not needed *Long transmission distance, up to 100 meters *Low power consumption *4 pins packaged and fully interchangeable 2. Description: AM2303 output calibrated digital signal. It applys exclusive digital-signal-collecting-technique and humidity sensing technology, assuring its reliability and stability. Its sensing elements is connected with 8-bit single-chip computer. Every sensor of this model is temperature compensated and calibrated in accurate calibration chamber and the calibration-coefficient is saved in type of programme in OTP memory, when the sensor is detecting, it will cite coefficient from memory. Small size & low consumption & long transmission distance(100m) enable AM2303 to be suited in all kinds of harsh application occasions. Single-row packaged with four pins, making the connection very convenient. 3. Technical Specification: Model Power supply Output signal Sensing element Operating range Accuracy Resolution or sensitivity Repeatability Humidity hysteresis Long-term Stability Interchangeability AM2303 3.3-5.5V DC digital signal via Aosong 1-wire bus Polymer humidity capacitor humidity 0-100%RH; humidity +-2%RH(Max +-5%RH); humidity 0.1%RH; humidity +-1%RH; +-0.3%RH +-0.5%RH/year fully interchangeable temperature -40~80Celsius temperature +-0.3Celsius temperature 0.1Celsius temperature +-0.2Celsius http://www.aosong.com Thomas Liu (Sales Manager) Email: thomasliu198518@aliyun.com , sales@aosong.com

Electrical connection diagram: Power's voltage should be 3.3-5.5V DC. When power is supplied to sensor, don't send any instruction to the sensor within one second to pass unstable status. One capacitor valued lOOnF can be added between VDD and GND for wave filtering. Aosong 1-wire bus is used for communication between MCU and AM2303. ( Aosong 1-wire bus is specially designed by Aosong Electronics Co., Ltd. , it's different from Maxim/Dallas 1-wire bus, so it's...

Check-sum=the last 8 bits of Sum=1110 1110 When MCU send start signal, AM2303 change from...

Your specialist in innovating humidity & temperature sensors 1) Step 1: MCU send out start signal to AM2303 and AM2303 send response signal to MCU Data-bus's free status is high voltage level. When communication between MCU and AM2303 begins, MCU will pull low data-bus and this process must beyond at least 1~10ms to ensure AM2303 could detect MCU's signal, then MCU will pulls up and wait 20-40us for AM2303's response. When AM2303 detect the start signal, AM2303 will pull low the bus 80us as response signal, then AM2303 pulls up 80us for preparation to send data. See below figure:...

Your specialist in innovating humidity & temperature sensors Attention: If signal from AM2303 is always high-voltage-level, it means AM2303 is not working properly, please check the electrical connection status. 7. Electrical Characteristics: Items Condition Min Typical Max Unit Power supply DC 3.3 5 6 V Current supply Measuring 1 1.5 mA Stand-by 40 Null 50 uA Collecting Second 2 Second period 8. Error and sources of error: Measure values maybe influenced by follow factors: Humidity errors Equilibration time too short, steam, water sprays, dripping water or condensation at the sensor, etc....

Your specialist in innovating humidity & temperature sensors Relative humidity strongly depend on temperature, that is why we use temperature compensation technology to ensure accurate measurement of RH. But it's still be much better to keep the sensor at same temperature when sensing. AM2303 should be mounted at the place as far as possible from parts that may cause change to temperature. (5) Attentions to light Long time exposure to strong light and ultraviolet may debase AM2303's performance. (6) Attentions to connection wires The connection wires' quality will effect communication's...
