However, the sensor can operate without restriction from 5 kHz to 300 kHz. POLARIZATION In order to get a better reproducibility during measurements, always connect the case of the header (pin 2) to the ground of the circuit. The case of the header is located on the opposite side of the tab. SOLDERING INSTRUCTIONS We recommend taking specific attention to soldering conditions to get the best performance of Humirel sensors. See Application Note.

The HS1101LF, used as variable capacitor, is connected to the TRIG and THRES pin. Pin 7 is used as a short circuit pin for resistor R4. The HS1101LF equivalent capacitor is charged through R22 and R4 to the threshold voltage (approximately 0.67Vcc) and discharged through R22 only to the trigger level (approximately 0.33Vcc) since R4 is shorten to ground by pin 7. Since the charge and discharge of the sensor run through different resistors, R22 and R4, the duty cycle is determined by: thigh = C@%RH*(R22+R4)*ln2 tlow= C@%RH*R22*ln2 F = 1 / ( t h i g h + t l ow ) = 1 / ( C @ % R H * ( R 4 + 2 * R 2 2 ) * l n 2 ) Output duty cycle = thigh*F = R22/(R4+2*R22) To provide an output duty cycle close to 50%, R4 should be very low compared to R22 but never under a minimum value. Resistor R3 is a short circuit protection. 555 must be a CMOS version.

The added capacitance will act as a parallel capacitance with the sensor and create a measurement error. - A careful coating of PCB and components must be implemented to prevent unexpected deviations of Fout in high humidity conditions.
