DHT22 Temperature/Humidity

Temperature and Humidity measurement with a DHT22 sensor using an Arduino Nano V3.0 and displayed on a 16x2 LCD

This is a very simple project to display temperature and humidity in real-time. The project is also very useful to test the components.

Components

  • Arduino Nano V3.0 microcontroller
  • 16x2 LCD (with I2C interface, address 0x3F)
  • DHT22 sensor
  • Jumper wires
  • Power source (e.g. 3.7V LiPo)
  • USB cable to program the microcontroller

Instructions

  1. Connect the components as shown in the Fritzing diagram, except the battery.
  2. Connect the USB cable to the computer and upload the Arduino Sketch file.
  3. Disconnect from the computer.
  4. Connect the battery and you are ready to go.
