 Implementation Notes
 --------------------
 
 **Hardware:**
 
 * Adafruit SGP40 Air Quality Sensor Breakout - VOC Index <https://www.adafruit.com/product/4829>
+* In order to use the `measure_raw` function, a temperature and humidity sensor which
+  updates at at least 1Hz is needed (BME280, BME688, SHT31-D, SHT40, etc. For more, see:
+  https://www.adafruit.com/category/66)
 
 **Software and Dependencies:**
 
 * Adafruit CircuitPython firmware for the supported boards:

+        The operational range of temperatures for the SGP40 is -10 to 50 degrees Celsius
+        and the operational range of relative humidity for the SGP40 is 0 to 90 %
+        (assuming that humidity is non-condensing).
+
+        Humidity compensation is further optimized for a subset of the temperature
+        and relative humidity readings. See Figure 3 of the Sensirion datasheet for
+        the SGP40. At 25 degrees Celsius, the optimal range for relative humidity is 8% to 90%.
+        At 50% relative humidity, the optimal range for temperature is -7 to 42 degrees Celsius.
 
+        Prolonged exposures outside of these ranges may reduce sensor performance, and
+        the sensor must not be exposed towards condensing conditions at any time.
