Portable Environment Monitor Reference Design

Renesas' quick solutions feature a reference design for a portable environment monitor. Temperature, humidity, and luminance changes in the air have a direct impact on human body comfort and emotions making the detection of these factors necessary. Environmental conditions need to be recorded in various scenarios ranging from an agricultural environment investigation, to a factory audit, and to energy monitoring activities in offices.

The portable environment monitor is a convenient tool that enables real-time tracking of temperature, humidity, and luminance shown on a display. This solution is perfectly suited for an IoT sensor module. By simply using four keys, users can set high/low limits of temperature, humidity, and luminance. The set value is saved in data Flash and once the value is exceeded, the alarm will buzz, and an arrow symbol will be shown on the LCD module.
