2.3 Status Register
Some of the advanced functions of the SHTxx are available
through the status register. The following section gives a
brief overview of these features. A more detailed description
is available in the application note “Status Register”

2.3.1 Measurement resolution
The default measurement resolution of 14bit (temperature)
and 12bit (humidity) can be reduced to 12 and 8bit. This is
especially useful in high speed or extreme low power
applications.
2.3.2 End of Battery
The “End of Battery” function detects VDD voltages below
2.47 V. Accuracy is ±0.05 V
2.3.3 Heater
An on chip heating element can be switched on. It will
increase the temperature of the sensor by 5-15 °C (9-27 °F).
Power consumption will increase by ~8 mA @ 5 V.
Applications:
By comparing temperature and humidity values before and
after switching on the heater, proper functionality of both
sensors can be verified.
• In high (>95 %RH) RH environments heating the sensor
element will prevent condensation, improve response
time and accuracy
Warning: While heated the SHTxx will show higher
temperatures and a lower relative humidity than with no
heating.
