Pimoroni BME680 Breakout
Overview
The PIM357 is a versatile environmental sensor breakout based on the Bosch BME680, capable of measuring gas, pressure, humidity, and temperature. It features a Raspberry Pi-compatible pinout and is designed for easy integration via an I2C interface. The board operates across a wide voltage range of 2V to 6V, making it compatible with both 3.3V and 5V logic systems.
Why Choose This Part
The breakout includes a built-in voltage regulator and level shifter, allowing it to function safely between 2V and 6V. Its compact 19mm x 19mm footprint and I2C interface simplify physical and electrical integration into existing SBC or microcontroller projects.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Connect the breakout to a Raspberry Pi's GPIO header or an Arduino via the I2C pins (SDA/SCL). Use the Pimoroni BME680 Python library for rapid prototyping on Linux-based systems or the Bosch BSEC library for advanced air quality indexing on microcontrollers.
