Data
Example of how data transmission and the binary system provides information on both Temperature and Humidity.
ESP-32 receives 40 bits from the sensor as follows:
| 16 bits for | RHumidity | 0000 0010 1000 1100 |
|---|---|---|
| + | ||
| 16 bits for | Temperature | 0000 0001 0101 1111 |
| = | ||
| 8 bits | Check-sum | 1110 11101) |
—————————————————————————————————————————————
The conversion from the humidity data is:
| Binary system | > | Decimal System |
|---|---|---|
| 0000 0010 1000 1100 | > | 652 |
\[RH = \frac{\mathrm{652}}{\mathrm{10}} = \mathrm{65.2\;\%}\]
The conversion from the Temperatures data is:
| Binary system | > | Decimal System |
|---|---|---|
| 0000 0001 0101 1111 | > | 351 |
- \[T = \frac{\mathrm{351}}{\mathrm{10}} = \mathrm{35.1°C}\]
If the highest bit of temperature is 1 as in: _1_000 0000 0110 0101, this means that the temperature is negative, therefore T = -10.1 °C2).
