AM2301 STM32F4xx DESCRIPTION
VCC 3V3-5V Positive supply
GND GND Ground
DATA PD1 Data line

You can select your own data pin for STM32F4xx, add lines below in your defines.h file and edit as you want:

On pin, internal pull-up resistor is enabled, but if you have a larger distance, add external resistor about 4k7 Ohm.

Read data

First you have to initialize sensor. Do this with

You are now able to read data. First make a new instance of data typedef.

Then check if data is valid with
