    DHT22 Temperature & Humidity Sensor.

.. _Adafruit: https://www.adafruit.com/product/385

The DHT22 and DHT11 require external pull up resistors on the data line. To do this, solder
a resistor with *about* 4.7kΩ (anything in the range from 1kΩ to 10kΩ probably works fine, but
if you're having issues try the 4.7kΩ recommended by the manufacturer) between ``DATA`` and ``3.3V``.

    # Example configuration entry
    sensor:
      - platform: dht
        pin: D2
        temperature:
          name: "Living Room Temperature"
        humidity:
          name: "Living Room Humidity"
        update_interval: 60s

Configuration variables:
------------------------

- **pin** (**Required**, :ref:`config-pin`): The pin where the DHT bus is connected.
- **temperature** (**Required**): The information for the temperature sensor.

  - **name** (**Required**, string): The name for the temperature sensor.
  - **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Set the ID of this sensor for use in lambdas.
  - All other options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.

- **humidity** (**Required**): The information for the humidity sensor

  - **name** (**Required**, string): The name for the humidity sensor.
  - **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Set the ID of this sensor for use in lambdas.
  - All other options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.

- **model** (*Optional*, int): Manually specify the DHT model, can be
  one of ``AUTO_DETECT``, ``DHT11``, ``DHT22``, ``DHT22_TYPE2``, ``AM2302``, ``RHT03``, ``SI7021``
  and helps with some connection issues. Defaults to ``AUTO_DETECT``.  Auto detection doesn't work for the SI7021 chip.
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to check the
  sensor. Defaults to ``60s``.

.. note::

    If you're seeing lots of invalid temperature/humidity warnings in the logs, try manually setting the
    DHT model with the ``model:`` configuration variable. Other problems could be wrong pull-up resistor values
    on the DATA pin or too long cables.
