DHT: Aosong DHT Digital-output Humidity and Temperature Sensor
##############################################################

Description
***********

This sample application periodically (0.5 Hz) measures the ambient
temperature and humidity. The result is written to the console.

Wiring
*******

This sample uses an external breakout for the sensor.  A devicetree
overlay must be provided to identify the sensor variant and the GPIO
used to control the sensor.

Building and Running
********************

After providing a devicetree overlay that specifies the sensor location,
build this sample app using:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/sensor/dht
   :board: nrf52dk/nrf52832
   :goals: build flash
