Product Summary
The evaluation kit EK-H5 is made for running
Sensirion’s humidity and temperature sensors and
display measured values. It is held very simple: A
USB dongle with USB to I
connects with a sensor cable and sensor. With
viewer software it is able to communicate with
SHT1x, SHT7x as well as the new generation SHT2x
and display measured values.
1 EK-H5 USB Stick: Contains USB to I
capabilities.
1 Sensor cable of 1m length with plug for connecting
sensors with USB dongle.
1 SHT21 sensor: SMD type, DFN 3-0 packaged
sensors with version 4C sensor chip mounted to small
PCB with connector. Please refer to datasheet SHT21
for more details.

The viewer software can be downloaded from the
Sensirion web page and owns some simple data-
logger features.
The main purpose of the evaluation kit is
demonstrating the unique performance of Sensirion’s
humidity and temperature sensors without any own
hard or software design work.
Viewer Software
The viewer software displays relative humidity and
temperature data on two different windows. It allows for
addressing all available resolutions, absolute or relative
timing, free choice of measurement intervals (1 … 1440s),
and choice for displaying °C or °F. The data may be
logged, stored and exported to Excel format.
Viewer Software must be downloaded from the Sensirion
web page. Please find it on www.sensirion.com/ekh5.
Please note that the USB stick, sensor cable and sensor
must be connected to the computer before starting the
software. No further software driver or any other hardware
is required for running EK-H5.
When starting the viewer software, the right sensor must
be selected in a first window (more sensors are given for
choice). The settings must be chosen and then the
measurement may be started.
