Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA6260:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description It's half USB Key, half temperature-humidity sensor*...* it's the **Adafruit SHT45 Trinkey with a PTFE filter.** Adafruit wanted to make it super-easy to add one of Adafruit's most popular combination environmental sensors to any computer with a USB A port. The PCB is designed to slip into any USB A port on a computer or laptop. There's an ATSAMD21 microcontroller on board with just enough circuitry to keep it happy. One pin of the microcontroller connects to a NeoPixel LED. Another pin is used as a capacitive touch input on the end. A reset button lets you enter bootloader mode if necessary. That's it! The SAMD21 can run CircuitPython or Arduino nicely - both have existing SHT4x, NeoPixel, and Adafruit's FreeTouch (capacitive touch) libraries. Over the USB connection, you can have serial, MIDI, or HID connectivity. The star of this Trinkey is the [SHT45 from Sensirion](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-sensirion-sht45-precision-temperature-humidity-sensor-stemma-qt-qwiic.html). Sensirion Temperature/Humidity sensors are some of the finest and highest-accuracy devices you can get. The **SHT45** sensor is the fourth generation (started at the SHT10 and worked its way up to the top!). **The SHT45 has an excellent ±1.0% typical relative humidity accuracy from 25 to 75% and ±0.1°C typical accuracy from 0 to 75 °C**.The reported temperature may be a few degrees higher than ambient due to self-heating. The SHT45 Trinkey is perfect for simple projects that want to read the ambient temperature and humidity without extra wiring, soldering, drivers, or complex software. Adafruit even ship the board pre-programmed with code that will print a unique serial number, the temperature, humidity, and touch sensor over a serial/COM port in CSV (comma-separated value) format so you can use it immediately. [If you need to measure farther than the computer port, simply use any USB A extension cable](https://core-electronics.com.au/usb-extension-cable-3-meters-10-ft-long.html). [If you don't need high precision, save a few $ with the SHT41 Trinkey](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-sht41-trinkey-usb-temperature-and-humidity-sensor.html), which has ±1.8% typical relative humidity accuracy from 25 to 75% and ±0.2°C typical accuracy from 0 to 75 °C. We think it's just an adorable little board. It's small, durable, and inexpensive enough to be a first microcontroller board or an inspiration for advanced developers to make something simple and fun. - ATSAMD21E18 32-bit Cortex M0+ - 48 MHz 32-bit processor with 256KB Flash and 32 KB RAM - Native USB CDC ACM supported by every OS (Mac OS X, Windows 7~11, [Linux](https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c)) - can be used in Arduino or CircuitPython as a USB serial console, MIDI, Keyboard/Mouse HID, and even a little disk drive for storing Python scripts. - Can be used with Arduino IDE or CircuitPython - One RGB NeoPixel LED - One Capacitive Touchpad - SHT45 Temperature + Humidity sensor with thermal-isolation cutout and a PTFE filter - Reset switch **to start** your project code over or enter bootloader mode - Slim and cute, keychain-friendly! ## Technical Details **SHT45-AD1F-R2 specifications:** - **PTFE Filter cover for protection:** The filter membrane option for SHT4x family members inherently provides an additional barrier for all pollutants to enter the sensor opening, thus lowering negative influences on the sensing element. Mostly designed to keep particles and dust from accumulating and reducing the response time, the membrane also enables more efficient and easy cleaning, as it helps to reduce liquid intrusion into the sensor opening. Even though not selectively filtering, in general, physical barriers allow to reduce the amount of unwanted chemical contamination and help to remove potentially harmful components by facilitating wiping (flat sensor surface). The integrated SHT4x PTFE membrane provides additional protection from particles and enables sensor operation in harsh conditions (according to IP67). The membrane has a thickness of 100 µm offering a filtration efficiency of >99.99% for particles of 200 nm size and larger. Owing to the high permeability and the small volume between sensing element and membrane, the specified response time of the RH sensor is unaltered. - Accuracy Specification: ?RH = ±1.0 %RH, ?T = ±0.1 °C - Breakout board Vdd/logic: 3.3V to 5V - Avg. current: 0.4 µA, Idle current: 80 nA (not including on-board regulator quiescent) - I2C FM+, CRC checksum, default I2C addr 0x44 - Operating range: 0 … 100 %RH, -40…125 °C - Fully functional in condensing environment - Power heater, true NIST-traceability - JEDEC JESD47 qualification - Sensor-specific calibration certificate acc. to ISO 17025 : 2017, 3-point temp. calibration - [More information at Sensirion!](https://sensirion.com/products/catalog/SHT45/) ![RoHS 2 2011 65 EU Compliant](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RoHS2_2011_65_EU_7356c5574c.svg)![RoHS 2 2015 863 EU Compliant](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/RoHS2_2015_863_EU_86773f57f9.svg) Learn ![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/5896-00_19267981ade.jpg) [ Primary Guide: Adafruit SHT4x Trinkey ](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-sht4x-trinkey) Half USB key, half temperature-humidity sensor ## Images - [Product image 1](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/catalog/product/A/D/ADA6260-1.jpg)
