Sensirion, a world-leading provider of humidity and temperature sensors, has announced that the new SHT40 Smart Gadget is now available globally through Sensirion’s distribution network. The SHT4x Smart Gadget is a reference design circuit board that demonstrates the outstanding performance and ease of use of Sensirion’s SHT4x humidity and temperature sensors in connected devices.

The Smart Gadget comes with a SHT40 humidity and temperature sensor and measures ambient humidity, temperature, and dew point in Celsius and Fahrenheit. Furthermore, it is able to communicate with Bluetooth low energy devices, such as smartphones, while offering data-logging capabilities. The gadget consists of a main PCB equipped with an SHT40 sensor, LCD display, push-button, and BLE module, including battery, supports, and a user guide.

As part of Sensirion’s next generation humidity and temperature sensors, the SHT40 builds on a completely new and optimized CMOSens® chip offering ultra-low power consumption and industry-leading accuracy specifications. Sensirion’s CMOSens® Technology provides a complete sensor system on a single chip, with a fully calibrated digital I2C fast-mode plus interface. The sensor covers operating ranges from 0 to 100 % RH and from -40°C to 125°C with accuracies of ±1.8% RH and ±0.2°C. With an extended supply voltage range from 1.08 V to 3.6 V and 400 nA average current, the SHT40 is perfectly suited for mobile and battery-driven applications. The exceptionally small size encased within a robust DFN housing enables robust integration into challenging designs while meeting the highest reliability demands, as demonstrated by the JEDEC JESD47 qualification.

Sensirion offers the MyAmbience app for viewing live data from all gadgets or tracking history and export data. Download the MyAmbience app for your iOS or Android system, connect your Sensirion Smart Gadget via Bluetooth to your mobile device and start getting to know your environment.

Mass Flow Meter SFM5400

Sensirion

The SFM5400 mass flow meter measures mass flows with outstanding accuracy (errors < 1%), long-term stability and repeatability and covers an impressively wide dynamic measurement range. The SFM5400 is made of metal and highly configurable. It is available with a variety of fluidic connections and various interfaces and measures maximum flow rates between 50 sccm and 100 slm. The sensor signal is directly converted into a digital, completely calibrated and temperature-compensated signal on the chip.  Multiple gas calibrations can be stored on a single device. Additionally, the flow meter can check whether the activated gas calibration matches the actual gas present. The SFM5400's versatility makes it the ideal solution for industrial and medical applications. The outstanding performance of the SFM5400 mass flow meter is based on the innovative CMOSens® Technology, which integrates the high-precision sensor element and the analog and digital processing electronics on a single CMOS silicon chip. Combined with high-quality materials, the result is a durably stable, extremely fast and highly precise mass flow meter. The SFM5400 mass flow meter is the valve-free version of the SFC5400 mass flow controller. The SFC5400 mass flow controller has the same performance characteristics as the mass flow meter and is used in similar applications, and the two products can be ideally combined. You can find further information and detailed specifications about the mass flow controller on the SFC5400 website. Features High accuracy at low flow rates (< 1 sccm) Excellent accuracy / repeatability (0.8% / 0.1% of measured value respectively) Wide dynamic range (turndown ratio 1000:1) Multiple gases and gas recognition Digital and analog interfaces Flexible mechanical connection options: down mount, VCR and VCO, Swagelok, C-/W-Seal, etc. Highly configurable MTBF 169 years - no recalibration required
