Joseph Ellsworth / Mbed 2 deprecated xj-Nucleo-F303K8-SHT75-TEST

Testing SHT75 humidity sensor on STM F303K8 board.

Dependencies:   SHT75 mbed

Fork of Nucleo-F303K8-SSD1306_OLED by Joseph Ellsworth

Sample code to test SHT75 humidity sensor using STM F303K8 board. Uses a 3.3V from board to power sensor. 10K resistor Pull-up on data. Must not be on same pins as I2C. Uses D0 for Clk and D1 for Data.

I had to modify sample code supplied by https://developer.mbed.org/users/nimbusgb/code/SHT75/ because the sensor failed to read without the softReset() and readStatus() at beginning of measurement loop. I think this is caused by the 72Mhtz speed of the F303K8 but did not attempt to fully diagnose.

The readStatus() method from library seems to malfunction and always return a -1 which never changes even when sensor is unplugged.
