HTS221 Humidity problem

Posted on May 12, 2017 at 12:04

Hello. I have a problem with humidity measurement. Despite the proper value of temperature, te humidity is always over 100%. I'm using the official ST software. I'm wondering if it is a hardware problem ?

The initialization is as following:

...

HTS221_Init_st cfg_struct;

cfg_struct.avg_h = HTS221_AVGH_4;

cfg_struct.avg_t = HTS221_AVGT_2;

cfg_struct.odr = HTS221_ODR_1HZ;

cfg_struct.bdu_status = HTS221_ENABLE;

cfg_struct.heater_status = HTS221_DISABLE;

cfg_struct.irq_level = HTS221_LOW_LVL;

cfg_struct.irq_output_type = HTS221_PUSHPULL;

cfg_struct.irq_enable = HTS221_DISABLE;

HTS221_Get_DeviceID(&deviceID);

HTS221_Set_InitConfig(&cfg_struct);

/* it is activation function in fact !!! */

HTS221_DeActivate();

while (true)

{

         HTS221_Get_Measurement(&humidity, &temperature);

         ... some delay and read data

}
