Issue with ENS160+AHT21 - ENS160 readings unavailable

Hi,
I am trying to add an ENS160+AHT21 sensor to my climate control module to check CO2 Level in Chicken Broiler.
Every few hours the ENS160 stops reading values and output is always “0”

I am using a NodeMCU-32S DevKit v4 and the code is:

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you for your time.

I absolutely had the same problem with the combined ENS160 and AHT21 chips. I posted about it in the hass discord, but the short version is that the issue was to do with the power to the ENS160 falling below requirements at some points, and the fix was soldering on a supplemental capacitor to prevent the dropout and provide steady power to the ENS160 sensor.

I fear those messages are lost to time on the discord now, but I’ve attached a picture. It’s a 47uF capacitor from the positive side of the ENS160 supply (it was like 1.7v or something i think) to ground. Note that these boards differ sometimes… in one case i had to go from the output of the fet and in the other i could solder to the smd capacitor… they’re almost identical, but not quite.

That said, even after doing this, i found I was getting wildly variable results from several otherwise identical sensors in identical circuits in the same room.

I decided to use separate ENS160 and AHT21 boards, and unfortunately even those aren’t really as consistent as I’d like, and a few may have the same issue of the persistent 0 value issue you report above. I haven’t tried to fix them yet, so we’ll see. I’m not sure how good these really are ultimately, or at least, the ones you can get from AliExpress. Caveat Emptor i guess.

Dear kbenton,

A week ago i tried to provide an external power supply for all the sensors connected to my ESP32 and it seems to be working fine till now. ENS160+AHT20 still hasn’t crashed yet.

As for the readings, i am currently comparing ENS160 to SCD41 (true sensor) and the results differ at most about 100ppm.

As for the ENS sensor, i purchased a bunch of ENS160+ENS210 sensors from rtRobot from AliExpress and will conduct a thorough test since i will be using it in mass production in my Control Panels for Chicken Broilers and will let you know the results.

N.B:
rtRobot’s sensor module are very reliable, i have been using their products for the last 3 years under very harsh conditions.

Thank you for your time.

Thank you! This saved my sanity. Added an extra cap and haven’t had this issue since.

It has highlighted another issue I’ve been seeing with these boards which I’ve posted about over here.
