<![CDATA[M5 Stickc Arduino samples - Temperature reading issue]]>Hi,

At room temperature when I run the samples(Factory Test ) for the M5Stickc, the temperature is being displayed as 57/58+ etc., This is certainly incorrect.

anyone facing similar issue.?

The sensor connected directly to the connector will be heated by the device through paths and goldpins and you can not help it.

As far as dht11 / 12 is concerned, I already subtract these 2-3 degrees in the program from the read temperature, which are overstated. But you have to check it yourself experimentally if the result is overstated with any other sensor in the temperature range you want to measure.

Unfortunately, I don't have dht22, so I won't tell you anything specific about its accuracy or results.

@robalstona have you found a fix ? also i have the same problem and i would like to know if i need to use ENV Hat / ENV Unit / DHT22 Grove to have a good measurement

The stick during normal operation heats up quite strongly which can be felt with a bare hand. The second thing is that the DHT11 / 12 sensors still increase the temperature reading by 2/3 degrees at least compared to the ds18b20 sensor.

When I connect the ENV-HAT with cables away from the stick, the sensor measures reasonable values.

Incorrect values if the ENV-HAT is directly connected:
Wrong values

Correct values if the ENV-HAT is connected via a cable extension:
Correct values

Correct values

Yes.
we are not sure where the issue is but it could be heat generated by the stick causing the inaccuracies.
