HSM 20G temperature humidity analog sensor Nokia5110 LCD

HSM-20G temperature & humidity analog sensor + Nokia5110 LCD

Temperature and humidity measurement are always a nice addition to hobbyist projects. In my previous post, I’ve discussed the DHT11 sensor, which is capable of measuring both temperature and humidity. They are digital sensor and provide calibrated outputs with temperature and relative humidity. I’ve also demonstrated how to interface with Arduino and display it on
