im trying to use sht20 sensor for my project but it only works sometimes and not consistently sometimes it will and then the serial monitor will not work and freeze. i tried to use i2c scanner but it only prints I
// --------------------------------------
// i2c_scanner
//
// Version 1
// This program (or code that looks like it)
// can be found in many places.
// For example on the Arduino.cc forum.
// The original author is not know.
// Version 2, Juni 2012, Using Arduino 1.0.1
// Adapted to be as simple as possible by Arduino.cc user Krodal
// Version 3, Feb 26 2013
// V3 by louarnold
// Version 4, March 3, 2013, Using Arduino 1.0.3
// by Arduino.cc user Krodal.
// Changes by louarnold removed.
// Scanning addresses changed from 0...127 to 1...119,
// according to the i2c scanner by Nick Gammon
// https://www.gammon.com.au/forum/?id=10896
// Version 5, March 28, 2013
// As version 4, but address scans now to 127.
// A sensor seems to use address 120.
// Version 6, November 27, 2015.
// Added waiting for the Leonardo serial communication.
//
//
// This sketch tests the standard 7-bit addresses
// Devices with higher bit address might not be seen properly.
//
#include <Wire.h>
void setup()
{
Wire.begin();
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial); // Leonardo: wait for serial monitor
Serial.println("\nI2C Scanner");
}
void loop()
{
byte error, address;
int nDevices;
Serial.println("Scanning...");
nDevices = 0;
for(address = 1; address < 127; address++ )
{
// The i2c_scanner uses the return value of
// the Write.endTransmisstion to see if
// a device did acknowledge to the address.
Wire.beginTransmission(address);
error = Wire.endTransmission();
if (error == 0)
{
Serial.print("I2C device found at address 0x");
if (address<16)
Serial.print("0");
Serial.print(address,HEX);
Serial.println(" !");
nDevices++;
}
else if (error==4)
{
Serial.print("Unknown error at address 0x");
if (address<16)
Serial.print("0");
Serial.println(address,HEX);
}
}
if (nDevices == 0)
Serial.println("No I2C devices found\n");
else
Serial.println("done\n");
delay(5000); // wait 5 seconds for next scan
}```
this is the code for I2C scanner
```/*!
* @file DFRobot_SHT20_test.ino
* @brief DFRobot's SHT20 Humidity And Temperature Sensor Module
* @n This example demonstrates how to read the user registers to display resolution and other settings.
* Uses the SHT20 library to display the current humidity and temperature.
* Open serial monitor at 9600 baud to see readings.
* Errors 998 if not sensor is detected. Error 999 if CRC is bad.
* Hardware Connections:
* -VCC = 3.3V
* -GND = GND
* -SDA = A4 (use inline 330 ohm resistor if your board is 5V)
* -SCL = A5 (use inline 330 ohm resistor if your board is 5V)

DFRobot_SHT20 sht20;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("SHT20 Example!");
sht20.initSHT20(); // Init SHT20 Sensor
delay(10000);
sht20.checkSHT20(); // Check SHT20 Sensor
}
void loop()
{
float humd = sht20.readHumidity(); // Read Humidity
float temp = sht20.readTemperature(); // Read Temperature
Serial.print("Time:");
Serial.print(millis());
Serial.print(" Temperature:");
Serial.print(temp, 1);
Serial.print("C");
Serial.print(" Humidity:");
Serial.print(humd, 1);
Serial.print("%");
Serial.println();
delay(1000);
}
this is the code i tried to use on the sht20 program.
if anyone have an idea what "I" means or how to check if my sensor is fried please inform me, it will be much appreciated.
the result of the sht20 program only prints
SHT20 Example!
it does not print the word temperature and Humidity
