BME280
Overview
The BME280 is an integrated environmental sensor from Bosch Sensortec that combines high-linearity and high-accuracy measurements of humidity, pressure, and temperature. Designed for mobile and battery-powered applications, this MEMS sensor provides fast response times and low noise performance across a standard industrial temperature range.
Why Choose This Part
The BME280 excels in applications requiring high vertical accuracy due to its refined pressure sensing capabilities. It supports both I2C and SPI interfaces, allowing for flexible integration into diverse microcontroller architectures while maintaining a compact footprint.
Applications
Getting Started
Engineers typically evaluate this sensor using the Bosch Sensortec Shuttle Board or popular breakout boards for the Arduino and Raspberry Pi ecosystems. Bosch provides a C driver on GitHub that handles compensation formulas for raw sensor data, which is essential for obtaining calibrated physical units.
