Thermometer v1

Yesterday I have received the sample from Mill-Max, so I could solder the socket to the Arduino prototyping board




The SHT71 fits perfectly the socket:




Using the example code provided by the manufacturer (Sample_Code_C1.zip) and Wayne's code for the SHT15 I put together a C++ class for easy access and conversion to engineering units: myardu/lib/SHTxx.



The datasheet says that the sensor should not be used very often (not more than every 1.5 seconds), so I incorporated this into my class.

Good stuff. Got my SHT71 singing & dancing in no time thanks to your code.
