AHT10 Sensor

Oh it also sweats

---

AHT10, the new generation of temperature and humidity sensors sets a new standard in size and intelligence: it is embedded for reflow soldering. This sensor gives a calibrated digital signal outputs in standard I2C format. The AHT10 is equipped with a newly designed ASIC-specific chip, an improved MEMS semiconductor capacitive humidity sensing element and a standard on-chip temperature sensing element. Its performance has been greatly improved beyond the reliability level of previous generation sensors. More about the sensor and its functions can be found out at Aosong AHT 10 Datasheet.

Struct definition

pub struct AHT10<'a> {/*fields omitted*/}

Usage:

use rustduino::sensors::aht10;

let mut aht10 = aht10::AHT10;

// Here aht10 is a mutable variable of Type aht10.

Trait implementation

Impl new for AHT10

pub fn new(&mut self) -> &'static mut Self

Returns pointer to the struct .

Usage:

use rustduino::sensors::aht10;

let mut aht10 = aht10::new()

// Here aht10 is the pointer to the struct AHT10.

// This aht10 pointer is used further for different functions.

Impl initialise for AHT10

pub fn initialise(&mut self) -> bool

Usage:

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.initialise();

Initiates the transmission by self initiating the sensor.

Returns true if done otherwise false.

Impl soft_reset for AHT10

pub fn soft_reset(&mut self)

Usage:

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.soft_reset();

• Restart sensor, without power off.
• The sensor system begins to reinitialize and restores the default settings after this command
• The function takes less then 20 ms

Impl read_to_buffer for AHT10

pub fn read_to_buffer(&mut self)

Usage:

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.read_to_buffer();

• Reads data from slave.

Impl trigger_slave for AHT10

pub fn trigger_slave(&mut self)

Usage

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.trigger_slave();

• Triggers the AHT10 to read temperature/humidity.

Impl wait_for_idle for AHT10

pub fn wait_for_idle(&mut self)

Usage:

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.wait_for_idle();

• Causes delay of 5ms when status bit is 0 and sensor is busy.

Impl perform_measurement for AHT10

pub fn perform_measurement(&mut self)

Usage:

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.perform_measurement();

• Performs measurement .

Impl status for AHT10

pub fn status(&mut self) -> u8

Usage:

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.status();

• Reads status bit returned by the slave.

Impl relative_humidity for AHT10

pub fn relative_humidity(&mut self) -> f32

Usage:

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.relative_humidity();

• Reads 20 bit raw humidity data and returns relative humidity.

Impl temperature for AHT10

pub fn temperature(&mut self) -> f32

Usage:

let aht10 = rustduino::sensors::AHT10::new();

aht10.temperature();

• Reads 20 bit raw temperature data and returns temperature.
