STM32 Nucleo and HDC1008 sensor Arduino example

OK we are now going to look at an HDC1008 attached to the STM32 Nucleo and all development will be done on the Arduino IDE – Install STM32 support in the Arduino IDE

The HDC1008 is a digital humidity sensor with integrated temperature sensor that provides excellent measurement accuracy at very low power. The device measures humidity based on a novel capacitive sensor. The humidity and temperature sensors are factory calibrated.

The sensing element of the HDC1008 is placed on the bottom part of the device, which makes the HDC1000 more robust against dirt, dust, and other environmental contaminants. The HDC1000 is functional within the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range.
