Summary of the Circuit
This circuit consists of an Arduino UNO microcontroller board interfaced with a KY-015 DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor. The Arduino UNO provides power to the DHT11 sensor and reads data from it through one of its digital pins. The purpose of this circuit is to measure the ambient temperature and humidity levels, which can be processed and utilized by the Arduino UNO for various applications such as environmental monitoring or climate control systems.
Component List
Arduino UNO
- Description: A microcontroller board based on the ATmega328P. It has 14 digital input/output pins, 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz quartz crystal, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button.
