DHT22 with Teensy 4.1

Wiring for the DHT22 (AM2302) temperature + humidity on the Teensy 4.1 (MIMXRT1062DVJ6B, 3.3 V logic), chosen with the same pin rules BoardPilot uses: default buses first, and no pins that are used for flash, USB, the debugger or booting.

Test code (Arduino)

// Library: DHT sensor library (Adafruit)
#include <DHT.h>

DHT dht(2, DHT22);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  dht.begin();
}

void loop() {
  delay(2000);  // the DHT22 needs 2 s between readings
  Serial.print(dht.readTemperature());
  Serial.print(" C  ");
  Serial.print(dht.readHumidity());
  Serial.println(" %");
}

Questions

Which Teensy 4.1 pins do I use for the DHT22?

VCC → 3V, DATA → 2 (GPIO_EMC_04), GND → G.

Does the DHT22 work with the Teensy 4.1 at 3.3 V?

Yes: the DHT22 runs at 3.3-5 V and the Teensy 4.1 uses 3.3 V signals, so no level shifting is needed.

BoardPilot checks this wiring in 3D as you build it, and finds crossed or missing wires on the real board.
