HIH-4000 Series
Humidity Sensors
The HIH-4000 Series Humidity Sensors are designed
specifically for high volume OEM (Original Equipment
Manufacturer) users. Direct input to a controller or other device
is made possible by this sensor’s linear voltage output. With a
typical current draw of only 200 µA, the HIH-4000 Series is
often ideally suited for low drain, battery operated systems.
Tight sensor interchangeability reduces or eliminates OEM
production calibration costs. Individual sensor calibration data
is available.
The HIH-4000 Series delivers instrumentation-quality RH
(Relative Humidity) sensing performance in a competitively
priced, solderable SIP (Single In-line Package). Available in
two lead spacing configurations, the RH sensor is a laser
trimmed, thermoset polymer capacitive sensing element with
on-chip integrated signal conditioning. The sensing element's
multilayer construction provides excellent resistance to most
application hazards such as wetting, dust, dirt, oils and
common environmental chemicals.
