Description
The Si7034 I
2
C Humidity and Temperature Sensor is a monolithic CMOS IC
integrating humidity and temperature sensor elements, an analog-to-digital
converter, signal processing, calibration data, and an I
2
C interface. The patented
use of industry-standard low-K polymeric dielectrics for sensing humidity enables
the construction of low-power, monolithic CMOS Sensor ICs with low drift and
hysteresis, and excellent long-term stability.
The humidity and temperature sensors are factory-calibrated and the calibration
data is stored in the on-chip non-volatile memory. This ensures that the sensors
are fully interchangeable, with no calibration or software changes required.
The Si7034 is available in a 2x2 mm DFN package and is reflow solderable. It can
be used as a hardware- and software-compatible drop-in upgrade for existing RH/
temperature sensors in 2x2 mm QFN-6 packages. The Si7034 offers an accurate,
low-power, factory-calibrated digital solution ideal for measuring humidity, dew
point, and temperature in applications ranging from HVAC/R and asset tracking to
industrial and consumer platforms.

1.
In Normal Mode, a temperature conversion is performed first, followed by an RH conversion.
2.
In Fast Mode, both a temperature conversion and an RH conversion are initiated at the same time and occur in parallel.
3.

conversion finishes before the RH conversion.
4.
Additional time for RH conversion after the temperature conversion has finished.

2.
Depending on the conversion command, the Si7034 may hold the master during the conversion (clock stretch). At
above 300 kHz SCL, the Si7034 may hold the master briefly for user register and device ID transactions. At the highest
I

C speed of 400 kHz the stretching will be <50 µs.
3.
Pulses up to and including 50 ns will be suppressed.
