The HR202 Humidity Sensing Sensor Module is an analog humidity sensor operating from 3.3V to 5V, offering stable and accurate humidity detection with a response time under 5 seconds and a wide -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range. The hr202 humidity sensor uses a resistive sensing principle — its internal element changes electrical resistance proportionally to the ambient relative humidity, and this resistance change is read as an analog voltage output, different from the capacitive sensing approach used in DHT11 and DHT22 sensors.
Per the hr202 humidity sensor datasheet, the analog signal output means the sensor integrates directly into an Arduino analog pin without requiring a timing-sensitive single-wire protocol or dedicated library — the hr202 humidity sensor arduino connection reads humidity changes as a voltage variation through analogRead(), similar to how a thermistor reads temperature. The -40°C to 85°C operating range is notably wider than DHT11’s 0-50°C ambient limit, making this hr202 humidity detection sensor suitable for cold-chain monitoring, outdoor installations, and industrial environments where temperature extremes are expected.
humidity-only analog sensor, the HR202 module does not include integrated temperature sensing — combined temperature and humidity measurement requires pairing it with a separate temperature sensor or choosing a DHT22 for dual-parameter sensing in one package. StemVolt provide this module is well-suited for makers building dedicated humidity monitoring systems and practical atmospheric sensing electronics projects.
