4 open source boards using the DHT11
Real designs built with the DHT11, from public GitHub projects: a quick way to see how others power, decouple and connect it. Each board comes with its KiCad files, full parts list and a render — and you can simulate its firmware on HardLabs.

What boards using the DHT11 are built for
DHT11: common questions
Where can I find a DHT11 reference design?
Each of the 4 boards on this page is a real design using the DHT11. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.
Which microcontrollers do boards using the DHT11 use?
Most are built on ESP32 (3) and ESP8266 (1).
How big is a typical board using the DHT11?
The median is 96.3 × 68.9 mm, and 75% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the DHT11?
By GitHub stars, Light control by matthewlai, with 20 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the DHT11 before building it?
Yes. HardLabs turns a board's netlist and BOM into a working simulation, so you can boot and test firmware against it with no hardware on your desk.
