Hardware Overview
How does it work?
Environment 2 Click is based on the SHT40 and SGP40, a high-accuracy best-in-class SHT relative humidity, and a temperature sensor combined with MOx based gas sensor from Sensirion. The SHT40 offers reduced power consumption, improved accuracy specifications, and a fully calibrated digital I2C Fast Mode Plus interface for the fastest data transfer. It covers extended operating humidity and temperature ranges from 0 to 100%RH and from -40°C to 125°C with accuracies of ±1.8%RH and ±0.2°C. Conversely, an additional gas sensor of this combo solution, the SGP40, provides a humidity-compensated VOC-based indoor air quality signal and a temperature-controlled micro hot plate. The SHT40 performs best when operated within the recommended
average temperature and humidity range of 5-60°C and 20-80%RH. Long-term exposure to conditions outside recommended normal range, especially at high relative humidity, may temporarily offset the RH signal. After returning to the recommended average temperature and humidity range, the sensor will recover to within specifications. The output signal of the SGP40 is processed by Sensirion’s VOC Algorithm, which automatically adapts to the environment the sensor is exposed to translate the raw signal into a VOC Index. The sensing element and VOC Algorithm feature unmatched robustness against contaminating gases in real-world applications, enabling exceptional long-term stability, low drift, high reproducibility, and reliability. Environment 2
Click communicates with MCU using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface. Since both sensors for operation requires a 3.3V logic voltage level only, this Click board™ also features the PCA9306 voltage-level translator from Texas Instruments. The I2C interface bus lines are routed to the dual bidirectional voltage-level translator, allowing this Click board™ to work properly with both 3.3V and 5V MCUs. This Click board™ can operate with either 3.3V or 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VIO SEL jumper. This way, both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs can use the communication lines properly. Also, this Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
Features overview
Development board
Nucleo 32 with STM32F031K6 MCU board provides an affordable and flexible platform for experimenting with STM32 microcontrollers in 32-pin packages. Featuring Arduino™ Nano connectivity, it allows easy expansion with specialized shields, while being mbed-enabled for seamless integration with online resources. The
board includes an on-board ST-LINK/V2-1 debugger/programmer, supporting USB reenumeration with three interfaces: Virtual Com port, mass storage, and debug port. It offers a flexible power supply through either USB VBUS or an external source. Additionally, it includes three LEDs (LD1 for USB communication, LD2 for power,
and LD3 as a user LED) and a reset push button. The STM32 Nucleo-32 board is supported by various Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) such as IAR™, Keil®, and GCC-based IDEs like AC6 SW4STM32, making it a versatile tool for developers.

Application Output
1. Application Output - In Debug mode, the 'Application Output' window enables real-time data monitoring, offering direct insight into execution results. Ensure proper data display by configuring the environment correctly using the provided tutorial.

2. UART Terminal - Use the UART Terminal to monitor data transmission via a USB to UART converter, allowing direct communication between the Click board™ and your development system. Configure the baud rate and other serial settings according to your project's requirements to ensure proper functionality. For step-by-step setup instructions, refer to the provided tutorial.

3. Plot Output - The Plot feature offers a powerful way to visualize real-time sensor data, enabling trend analysis, debugging, and comparison of multiple data points. To set it up correctly, follow the provided tutorial, which includes a step-by-step example of using the Plot feature to display Click board™ readings. To use the Plot feature in your code, use the function: plot(*insert_graph_name*, variable_name);. This is a general format, and it is up to the user to replace 'insert_graph_name' with the actual graph name and 'variable_name' with the parameter to be displayed.

*
* # Description
* This library contains API for Environment 2 Click driver.
* The library contains drivers for measuring air quality,
* temperature and relative humidity.
*
* The demo application is composed of two sections :
*
* ## Application Init
* Initializes I2C driver and triggers the built-in self-test checking,
* set heater off, performs sensors configuration and initialize VOC algorithm.
*
* ## Application Task
* This is an example that demonstrates the use of the Environment 2 Click board.
* Measured and display air quality ( raw data ),
* temperature ( degrees Celsius ), relative humidity ( % ) and VOC Index.
* Results are being sent to the Usart Terminal where you can track their changes.
* All data logs write on USB UART changes every 2 sec.
