DHT22 Accuracy

Post by Jcampsall »

DHT22 temperature-humidity sensor
Product ID: 385

Good for 0-100% humidity readings with 2-5% accuracy

Does this mean that the accuracy of my device will be consistent will every reading (perhaps +2.5%) or that each reading has an accuracy of 2-5% ?

Accuracy means the DHT22 will be 2-5% from the correct value and it should be consistent but it's probably not linear (check the datasheet)
