This is code for the Honeywell HIH-4030 humidity sensor (SparkFun SKU: SEN-09569).

Please note that the sensor is supposed to be used with 5v input, but it works just fine with 3.3v input because the output is linear.

The code below is tailored to 3.3v input.

Hi, can you explain me, based on the spec sheet how you calculate the constants inf formulas? i have a hih-5030 but i can't understand how determinate the values for this sensor...
