11. ABSTRACT
The quantity of moisture in the air is called humidity. Various physical, chemical, and
biological processes are affected by volume of water in air. Measurement of humidity in
various industries is important as it disturb the business value of the products.
Therefore, humidity sensing plays acrucial role, in the control system invarious
manufacturinghuman ease and processes.
Governing or observing it is of chief significance in various applications in domestic and
industrial field. During wafer processing moisture levels needs to be taken care in
semiconductor industry. In medical field too humidity sensing has many uses. It is used for
respiratory apparatus, disinfectants, incubators, pharmacological processing, and life
products. Chemical gas cleansing, dryers, kilns,paper, film drynessand nutrition processing
also requires humidity sensing. Agriculture field requires measurement of humidity for
plantation guard, soil dampness observing, etc. In domestic uses, it is essential for existing
atmosphere in constructions, cookery switch for heat up ovens, etc. Therefore humidity
sensors have uses in all these fields.

12. CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Humidity sensor senses the existence of moisture in our hands, and indicates the moisture
with the aid ofLED’s.The circuit can be used to examine theemotion, stressit can also be used
as lie indicator. Heart beat does not reflect emotion and stress,blood pressure and body
temperature but in that case skin moisture also elevates. The resistance decreases when the
body is moist.
When a person speaks lie its body resistance decreases. Therefore stress level can be
indicated by skin resistance.Physiological changes occur when a person speaks a lie due to
which body resistance decreases. We can relate it with the outcome for normal question.
Restrictingthe amount of moisture in air is very important in many industrial & domestic
uses. In various factories where semiconductors are made, moisture needed to be correctly
controlled throughoutmanufacturing process.
In various medical usages, moisture balance is need for breathingequipment’s, incubating
dispensation, etc. Dampnesscheck is mandatory for gas cleansing and food dispensation. In
agricultural industry, quantity of moisture is of wide importance aimed at plants, soil
protection, etc. In households, dampness control is needed for existingsituation in buildings,
etc.
In all such things, humidity sensors are used to giveasign of the moisture level present inair.
To make a mention of moisture level, a many terms are required. Psychometrics is the
learning of the amount of water vapour in air depending uponpressure and temperature.
Humidity measurement tells us the quantity of water vapour existing in the gas.

13. Table 1: The table below shows the terminologies used to specify the level of moisture:
Veryusually employed units required forthe magnitude of humidity are Parts per Million
(PPM), Dew/Frost point (D/F PT) and Relative Humidity (RH). Relative Humidity is
temperature reliant. Dew point is dependent on thegas pressureand is free from the
temperature and so it is known as absolutedampness measurement.
Parts per Million is a part of absolute measurement.
When the dryness of the gas is of crucial importance, dew pointas well as frost points are
used.
The dew point is employed as a measure of water vapour inmore temperatureprogressions
likethe dying in industries.
The Correlation amidthe above mentioned points are:
Fig 3: Correlation of the above mentioned points
CHAPTER 2

14. HUMIDITY SENSING
– CLASSIFICATION & PRINCIPLES
According to measurement units, humidity sensors can be divided into two types: Relative
humidity (RH) sensors and absolute humidity (moisture) sensors. Most of the available
humidity sensors are relative humidity sensors.
Table 2: The following table shows important parameters of different types of humidity
sensors:
CHAPTER 3
SENSING PRINCIPLE

15. Humidity measurement is performed by using dry and wet bulb hygrometers, dew point
hygrometers, and electronic hygrometers.
Electronic type hygrometers are broadly divided into two categories: one employs capacitive
sensing principle and the other use resistive effects.
Fig 4: A flowchart depicting categorization of Humidity Sensors
CHAPTER 3.1
SENSORS BASED ON CAPACITIVE EFFECT:
Humidity sensors based on this principle are made of a hygroscopic dielectric material which
is put in between a pair of electrodes which further make a small capacitor. Usually all
capacitive sensors make use of a plastic as the dielectric material, having a dielectric constant
having values from 2 to 15. Without moisture, the dielectric constant of the dielectric material
and the sensor geometry determines the magnitude of capacitance.
At room temperature, the dielectric constant of water vapour is 80 which is much larger than
the constant of the sensor dielectric material. Hence, absorption of water vapour by the sensor
makes an increase in the capacitance of the sensor.
At equilibrium, moisture present in a hygroscopic material depends on the temperature and
the water vapour pressure. It is true for the hygroscopic dielectric material which is used on
the sensor.

16. Relative humidity is a dependent on the temperature and water vapour pressure. Hence, there
is a relationship between relative humidity, the amount of moisture present in the sensor, and
sensor capacitance.
Fig 5:Structure of capacitive humidity
CHAPTER 3.2
SENSORS BASED ON RESISTIVE EFFECT:
Resistive type humidity sensors sense a change in the resistance value of the sensor element
with change in the change in the humidity.

17. Fig 6:Basic structure of resistive type humidity sensor
Thick film conductor of gold, ruthenium oxide is printed and can bemade in the shape of the
comb in order to make an electrode.
Then a polymeric film can be applied on the electrode and then the film acts as a humidity
sensing film because of the existence of movable ions.
Difference in impedance takes place becauseof the change in the number of movable ions.
CHAPTER 4
DESCRIPTION
This circuit of Humidity detector is based on LED's and two ICs that is CA3130 and
LM3914.It is used asa stress meter with various extra components.
IC CA3130 is operational amplifier which combines the advantage of both CMOS and
bipolar transistor on a single chip. The operating voltage ranges from 4.5V to 16V. The
advantage of using CA3130 is that they can be phased compensated with use of a single

18. external capacitor. To adjust the offset voltage they have terminals. The reference voltage can
be tuned at non-inverting and inverting pin so that when voltage at non-inverting pin is less
than inverting pin it will make the out pin high and vice versa.
Fig 7:Internal structure of IC CA3130
LM3914 is a monolithic integrated circuit. It senses the analog voltage and also derives ten
LED's providing a linear analog display.
Advantages of IC LM3914 are:
1.By changing a single pin user can easily select the dot or bar graph on the display.
2. LCD, LED’s or vacuum fluorescent display can be driven by this IC.
3. ICs can be cascaded up to hundred steps.
4. This IC can also work on low voltage as 3V power supply.
5. Resistor with LED is not needed in this IC becausethe currentrequired to drive LED’s is
controlled and programmed.
6. Wide temperature range is supported by it. The temperature range is from 0 degree to +70
degree Celsius.

CHAPTER 6
WORKING OF CIRCUIT
The First step is the calibration of the circuit as moisture content in handvaries from people to
people so we have to regulate the bridge network with the aid of VR1 and R1. Grasp the

21. electrodes in your hand normally and alter VR1 so that merely two or three LED glows.
There is no need to set it up once it is set up.
The circuit is ready and now it can be used. Interrogate a person and if he tells a lie than there
will be changes in body and resistance of body decreases.
This will cause a misbalance in our bridge network formed around VR1 and R1. Output of
pin sixof IC1 will become high which is given to pin 5 of IC2.LM3914 IC has the most
important work to convert the voltage into digital form and LED's starts to glow.
Therefore input voltages at IC1, IC2 act and various number of LED's glow. Generally IC2
has internal stable voltage of 1.2Vwhich meansthat after each 1.2V the other LED will glow.
The reference voltage can be varied by the variable resistor VR2.
The dot display can be changed to bar display by doing the following changes-
1. Link pin 9 directly to pin 3 for Bar graph display-
2. Leave the pin 9 exposed for dot display.

COMPONENTS USED
CHAPTER 7.1
 LIGHT EMITTING DIODES (LEDS) are semiconductor light sources. A light-
emitting diode is made up of two lead semiconductor source of light. It is a form of very

22. fundamental pn-junction diode that produces light when switched on. Electrons go for
recombination with electron holes within the device when the fitting voltage is applied to
the leads which leads to release of energy in the form of photons. Hence this effect is
known as electroluminescence and the color of the light is decided by the
semiconductor’s energy band gap.Based on semiconductor diode, LEDs emit photons
when electrons recombine with holes on forward biasing. The two terminals of LEDs are
anode (+) and cathode (-) and can be identified by their size. The longer leg is the positive
terminal or anode and shorter one is negative terminal.The forward voltage
of LED (1.7V-2.2V) is lower than the voltage supplied (5V) to drive it in a circuit. Using
an LED as such would burn it because a high current would destroy its p-n gate.
Therefore a current limiting resistor is used in series with LED. Without this resistor,
either low input voltage (equal to forward voltage) or PWM (pulse width modulation) is
used to drive the LED. Get details about internal structure of a LED.
Fig 10:LED
CHAPTER 7.2
 RESISTOR:Resistor is a passive component used to control current in a
circuit. Its resistance is given by the ratio of voltage applied across its
terminals to the current passing through it. Thus a particular value of resistor,
for fixed voltage, limits the current through it. They are omnipresent in
electronic circuits.The different value of resistances are used to limit the

23. currents or get the desired voltResistage drop according to the current-voltage
rating of the device to be connected in the circuit. For example, if an LED of
rating 2.3V and 6mA is to be connected with a supply of 5V, a voltage drop of
2.7V (5V-2.3V) and limiting current of 6mA is required. This can be achieved
by providing a resistor of 450 connected in series with the LED.Resistors
can be either fixed or variable. The low power resistors are comparatively
smaller in size than high power resistors. The resistance of a resistor can be
estimated by their color codes or can be measured by a multimeter. There are
some nonlinear resistors also whose resistance changes with temperature or
light. Negative temperature coefficient (NTC), positive temperature
coefficient (PTC) and light dependent resistor (LDR) are some suchresistors.
These special resistors are commonly used as sensors.
Fig 11: Resistors varying from few Ohms to Mega Ohms
CHAPTER 7.3
 CAPACITOR:A capacitor is a passive two-terminal electrical component. It is
used to store up energy in an electric field. The types of practical capacitors vary widely,
but all includes at least two electrical conductors estranged by dielectric
(insulator); for example, Capacitor one common construction consists of
metal foils estranged by a thin layer of insulating film. Capacitors may be non-
polarized/polarized and fixed/variable. Electrolytic capacitors are polarized

24. while ceramic and paper capacitors are examples of non-polarized capacitors.
Since capacitors store charge, they must be carefully discharged before
troubleshooting the circuits. The maximum voltage rating of the capacitors
used must always be greater than the supply voltage.
Fig 12:Different varieties of Capacitors
CHAPTER 7.4
 POTENTIOMETER: In an informal way a potentiometer can be
defined as a pot in electronics technology which is a component bearing
a three-terminal resistor having a contact in the form of slide that help in
forming an adjustable voltage divider. However if only the two terminals
are being used the one end and the wiper thus acting as a variable resistor.

CHAPTER 10
CONCLUSION
A sensor is a transducer whose purpose is to sense (that is, to detect) some characteristic of its
environs. It detects events or changes in quantities and provides a corresponding output,
generally as an electrical or optical signal; for example, a thermocouple converts temperature
to an output voltage. But a mercury-in-glass thermometer is also a sensor; it converts the

28. measured temperature into expansion and contraction of a liquid which can be read on a
calibrated glass tube.
Sensors are used in everyday objects such as touch-sensitive elevator buttons (tactile sensor)
and lamps which dim or brighten by touching the base, besides innumerable applications of
which most people are never aware. With advances in micro-machinery and easy-to-
use microcontroller platforms, the uses of sensors have expanded beyond the more traditional
fields of temperature, pressure or flow measurement,[1] for example into MARG sensors.
Moreover, analog sensors such as potentiometers and force-sensing resistors are still widely
used. Applications include manufacturing and machinery, airplanes and aerospace, cars,
medicine and robotics.
Sensor technologies are emerging fast with time and novel technology. This field is one of
the most fascinating areas which when revealeduninterruptedly so many sensor designs will
come out and advance in the coming days.This increases the competition between researchers
.This project humidity sensor is a contribution to the interest of people .It also gives a very
basic understanding about the sensor which will provide a good learning stage the beginner
