DHT22 Temperature and Humidity Sensor
Description
- Compound digital temperature and humidity sensor
- Includes moisture sensor and temperature measuring element
- Temperature range: -40-80°C (±2%RH error)
- Interface sequence: VCC, GND, S
The DHT22 Temperature and Humidity Sensor is a compound digital temperature and humidity sensor which outputs calibrated digital signals. DHT22 includes a capacitive moisture sensor and a NTC temperature measuring element which is connected to a high-performance 8-bit microcontroller.
ZIP File
I used some of these DHT22 sensors to add temperature and humidity displays to my Raspberry Pi web cams. Couldn't be simpler, just three wires and the DHT22 Python library from Adafruit. Most vendors charge $8 to $10 for just the bare sensor, but these come on a PCB with mounting holes and a wired connector. The PCB has an I2C pull-up resistor and a decoupling cap, so it makes for a very clean solution.
Used it with arduino uno to measure the temp/hum of my automated greenhouse tech project and it worked perfectly!
it is quite easy to assemble and works well
Seemed to work as expected. For the one-wire data interface though, you have to be pretty exact with the timing, i.e. able to resolve pulse changes on the order of about 10 microseconds.
Does what it should, simple to use.

Return Exceptions
The following products are not eligible for return or refund under this policy:
- Used, damaged, or modified products — Items that show signs of use, wear, or alteration, making them unsuitable for resale.
- Consumables * — Use and wear-and-tear components, altered or depleted through use (e.g., batteries, belts, brushes, gears, filament, tyres, disposable bags, lubricants, greases, waxes, etc.). Not eligible for return once opened or used.
- Perishables — Goods liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly. Not eligible for return.
- Sealed goods (health or hygiene) — Items sealed for health-protection or hygiene reasons (e.g., masks, gloves, odour-absorbing products). Not eligible for return once unsealed.
- Build-it-yourself products and items requiring customer assembly * — Including robots & kits, robot parts, and other products requiring assembly or soldering. Not eligible for return once assembled, soldered, or installed.
- Digital Goods, Software, and Apps * — Final sale only, due to licensing restrictions.
- Clearance Items * — Products identified as clearance or final sale, including end-of-life or discontinued items.
- Custom-made, personalized, or special-order items — Products manufactured, configured, adapted, or built to the customer's own specifications and requirements.
- On-Demand Items * — Standard catalogue products not stocked by RobotShop and ordered specifically to fulfil a customer request.
- Professional & Specialized Equipment — See the Professional & Specialized Equipment Warranty page and Professional & Institutional Buyers (B2B) section in the Terms & Conditions.
* United-Kingdom consumers retain their statutory Right of Cancellation on these items. Its exercise is subject to the conditions and exclusions set out in the Statutory Right of Cancellation, and any reimbursement may be reduced to reflect a loss in value resulting from handling beyond inspection.
How to Request a Return Authorisation (RA)
While the same return policy applies, these orders require a separate contact process for returns.
- RobotShop Fulfilled Orders → submit a support ticket from your account under My Support Tickets.
- Marketplace Vendor Orders → submit a ticket from your account under My Marketplace Tickets to contact the vendor directly.
Note: Marketplace vendor products are normally labelled with SKUs starting with RM, and identified on the product page with the mention "Sold and fulfilled by [Vendor Name]".
