Power Pins (VDD, VSS)
Serial Clock and Serial Data (SCL, SDA)
SCL is used to synchronize the communication between
microcontroller and the sensor. The clock frequency can
be freely chosen between 0 to 1000 kHz. Commands
with clock stretching according to I2C Standard9 are
supported.
The SDA pin is used to transfer data to and from the
sensor. For safe communication, the timing
specifications defined in the I2C manual9 must be met.
Both SCL and SDA lines are open-drain I/Os with diodes
to VDD and VSS. They should be connected to external
pull-up resistors (please refer to Figure 7). A device on
the I2C bus must only drive a line to ground. The external
pull-up resistors (e.g. Rp=10 kΩ) are required to pull the

bus capacity and communication frequency into account
(see for example Section 7.1 of NXPs I2C Manual for
more details9). It should be noted that pull-up resistors
may be included in I/O circuits of microcontrollers. It is
recommended to wire the sensor according to the
application circuit as shown in Figure 7.
Die Pad (center pad)
The die pad or center pad is visible from below and
located in the center of the package. It is electrically
connected to VSS. Hence electrical considerations do
not impose constraints on the wiring of the die pad.
However, due to mechanical reasons it is recommended
to solder the center pad to the PCB. For more
information on design-in, please refer to the document
“SHTxx Design Guide”.

ADDR Pin
Through the appropriate wiring of the ADDR pin the I2C
address can be selected. Please note that the I2C
address is represented through the 7 MSBs of the I2C
read or write header. The LSB switches between read or
write header. The wiring for the default address is shown
in Table 7 and Figure 7. The ADDR pin must not be left
floating. Please note that only the 7 MSBs of the I2C
Read/Write Header constitute the I2C Address.

ALERT Pin
The alert pin may be used to connect to the interrupt pin
of a microcontroller. The output of the pin depends on
the value of the RH/T reading relative to programmable
limits. Its function is explained in a separate application
note. If not used, this pin must be left floating.
3.6
nRESET Pin
The nReset pin may be used to generate a reset of the
sensor. A minimum pulse duration of 350 ns is required
to reliably trigger a reset of the sensor. Its function is
explained in more detail in section 4. If not used it is
recommended to connect to VDD.

Operation and Communication
The SHT3x-DIS supports I2C fast mode (and
frequencies up to 1000 kHz). Clock stretching can be
enabled and disabled through the appropriate user
command. For detailed information on the I2C protocol,
refer to NXP I2C-bus specification9.
All SHT3x-DIS commands and data are mapped to a 16bit address space. Additionally, data and commands are
protected with a CRC checksum. This increases
communication reliability. The 16 bits commands to the
sensor already include a 3 bit CRC checksum. Data send
from and received by the sensor is always succeeded by
an 8 bit CRC.
In write direction it is mandatory to transmit the
checksum, since the SHT3x-DIS only accepts data if it is
followed by the correct checksum. In read direction it is
up to the master to decide if it wants to read and process
the checksum.
4.1
Power-Up and Communication Start
The sensor starts powering-up after reaching the powerup threshold voltage VPOR specified in Table 3. After
reaching this threshold voltage the sensor needs the
time tPU to enter idle state. Once the idle state is entered
it is ready to receive commands from the master
(microcontroller).
address plus 0 as the write bit) and a 16-bit
measurement command. The proper reception of each
byte is indicated by the sensor. It pulls the SDA pin low
(ACK bit) after the falling edge of the 8th SCL clock to
indicate the reception. A complete measurement cycle is
depicted in Table 8.
With the acknowledgement of the measurement
command, the SHT3x-DIS starts measuring humidity
and temperature.
4.3
Measurement Commands for Single Shot
Data Acquisition Mode
In this mode one issued measurement command
triggers the acquisition of one data pair. Each data pair
consists of one 16 bit temperature and one 16 bit
humidity value (in this order). During transmission the
data pair is always followed by a CRC checksum, see
section 4.4.
In single shot mode different measurement commands
can be selected. The 16 bit commands are shown in
Table 8. They differ with respect to repeatability (low,
medium and high) and clock stretching (enabled or
disabled).
The repeatability setting influences the measurement
duration and the current consumption of the sensor. This
is explained in section 2.2.
During measurement the sensor generally does not
respond to any I2C activity, i.e. I2C read and write
headers are not acknowledged (NACK). However, when
a command with clock stretching has been issued, the
sensor responds to a read header with an ACK and
subsequently pulls down the SCL line. The SCL line is
pulled down until the measurement is complete. As soon
as the measurement is complete, the sensor releases
the SCL line and sends the measurement results.
Each transmission sequence begins with a START
condition (S) and ends with a STOP condition (P) as
described in the I2C-bus specification. The stop
condition is optional. Whenever the sensor is powered
up, but not performing a measurement or
communicating, it automatically enters sleep state for
energy saving. This sleep state cannot be controlled by
the user.
4.2
Starting a Measurement

In case the user needs humidity and temperature data
but does not want to process CRC data, it is
recommended to read the first two bytes of data with the
CRC byte (without processing the CRC data) and abort
the read transfer after reading the second two data bytes
with a NACK.
4.5
Measurement Commands for Periodic
Data Acquisition Mode
In this mode one issued measurement command yields
a stream of data pairs. Each data pair consists of one 16
bit temperature and one 16 bit humidity value (in this
order).
In periodic mode different measurement commands can
be selected. The corresponding 16 bit commands are
shown in Table 9. They differ with respect to repeatability
(low, medium and high) and data acquisition frequency
(0.5, 1, 2, 4 & 10 measurements per second, mps). Clock
stretching cannot be selected in this mode.
The data acquisition frequency and the repeatability
setting influences the measurement duration and the
current consumption of the sensor. This is explained in
section 2.2 of this datasheet.
Condition
Repeatability
After the sensor has completed the measurement, the
master can read the measurement results (pair of RH&
T) by sending a START condition followed by an I2C
read header. The sensor will acknowledge the reception
of the read header and send two bytes of data
(temperature) followed by one byte CRC checksum and
another two bytes of data (relative humidity) followed by
one byte CRC checksum. Each byte must be
acknowledged by the microcontroller with an ACK
condition for the sensor to continue sending data. If the
sensor does not receive an ACK from the master after
any byte of data, it will not continue sending data.
The sensor will send the temperature value first and then
the relative humidity value. After receiving the checksum
for the humidity value a NACK and stop condition should
be send (see Table 10).

Reset
A system reset of the SHT3x-DIS can be generated
externally by issuing a command (soft reset) or by
sending a pulse to the dedicated reset pin (nReset pin).
Additionally, a system reset is generated internally
during power-up or when brownout conditions are met.
During the reset procedure the sensor will not process
commands.
In order to achieve a full reset of the sensor without
removing the power supply, it is recommended to use the
nRESET pin of the SHT3x-DIS.

The SHT3x-DIS provides a soft reset mechanism that
forces the system into a well-defined state without
removing the power supply. When the system is in idle
state the soft reset command can be sent to the SHT3xDIS. This triggers the sensor to reset its system
controller and reloads calibration data from the memory.
In order to start the soft reset procedure the command
as shown in Table 12 should be sent.

Table 11 Command for a periodic data acquisition with the

Reset through the nReset Pin
Pulling the nReset pin low (see Table 6) generates a
reset similar to a hard reset (switching the power supply
to the VDD Pin off and then on again. The pins 1 (SDA),
4(SCL) and 2(ADDR) have a lower voltage than VDD.
Otherwise the sensor will be powered over the ESD
diodes. The reset pin is internally connected to VDD
through a pull-up and hence active low. The nReset pin
has to be pulled low for at least 350 ns to generate a
reset.
General Call
Additionally a reset of the sensor can also be generated
using the “general call” mode according to I2C-bus
specification9. This generates a reset which is
functionally identical to using the nReset pin. It is
important to understand that a reset generated in this
way is not device specific. All devices on the same I2C
bus that support the general call mode will perform a
reset. Additionally, for this command to work it is required

Packaging
SHT3x-DIS sensors are provided in a DFN package.
DFN stands for dual flat no leads. The humidity sensor
opening is centered on the top side of the package.
The sensor chip is made of silicon and is mounted to a
lead frame. The latter is made of Cu plated with
Ni/Pd/Au. Chip and lead frame are overmolded by an
epoxy-based mold compound leaving the central die pad
and I/O pins exposed for mechanical and electrical
connection. Please note that the side walls of the sensor
are diced and therefore these diced lead frame surfaces
are not covered with the respective plating.

etc). The last three digits (BCD) represent an
alphanumeric tracking code. That code can be decoded
by Sensirion only and allows for tracking on batch level
through production, calibration and testing – and will be
provided upon justified request.
If viewed from below pin 1 is indicated by triangular
shaped cut in the otherwise rectangular die pad. The
dimension of the triangular cut are shown in Figure 10
through the labels T1 & T2.

Traceability
All SHT3x-DIS sensors are laser marked for easy
identification and traceability. The marking on the sensor
top side consists of a pin-1 indicator and two lines of text.
The top line consist of the pin-1 indicator which is located
in the top left corner and the product name. The small
letter x stands for the accuracy class.
The bottom line consists of 6 letters. The first two digits
XY (=DI) describe the output mode. The third letter (A)
represents the manufacturing year (4 = 2014, 5 = 2015,

Land Pattern
Figure 11 shows the land pattern. The land pattern is
understood to be the metal layer on the PCB, onto which
the DFN pads are soldered.
The solder mask is understood to be the insulating layer
on top of the PCB covering the copper traces. It is
recommended to design the solder mask as a NonSolder Mask Defined (NSMD) type. For NSMD pads, the
solder mask opening should provide a 60 μm to 75 μm
design clearance between any copper pad and solder
mask. As the pad pitch is only 0.5 mm we recommend to
have one solder mask opening for all 4 I/O pads on one
side.
www.sensirion.com
For solder paste printing it is recommended to use a
laser-cut, stainless steel stencil with electro-polished
trapezoidal walls and with 0.1 or 0.125 mm stencil
thickness. The length of the stencil apertures for the I/O
pads should be the same as the PCB pads. However,
the position of the stencil apertures should have an offset
of 0.1 mm away from the center of the package. The die
pad aperture should cover about 70 – 90 % of the die
pad area –thus it should have a size of about 0.9 mm x
1.6 mm.

recommendation on the assembly process please
