Reading the HS300x-MC1 ID Number

The sensor ID is a 32-bit number and can be read in a similar fashion as illustrated in steps 1 and 2 of Figure 19,

using the appropriate register address values. The ID number is stored in two registers, with the upper and lower

16 bits stored in register addresses 0x1E and 0x1F, respectively.

Calculating Humidity and Temperature Output

The entire output of the HS300x-MC1 is 4 bytes. The relative humidity (in percent) and the temperature (in

degrees Celsius) are calculated with Equation 1 and Equation 2, respectively.

Storage and Handling

Recommendation: Once the sensors are removed from their original packaging, store them in metal-in antistatic

bags.

Avoid using polyethylene antistatic bags as they may affect sensor accuracy.

The nominal storage conditions are 10°C to 50°C and humidity levels within 20% to 60%RH. If stored outside of

these conditions for extended periods of time, the sensor readings may exhibit an offset. The sensor can be

reconditioned and brought back to its calibration state by applying the following procedure:

1.

Bake at a temperature of 80°C with a humidity < 10%RH for 10 to 12 hours.

2.

Rehydrate the sensor at a humidity of 75%RH and a temperature between 20°C to 30°C for 12 to 14 hours.
