BME280

Getting Started

Construct new PimoroniI2C and BreakoutBME280 instances:

from breakout_bme280 import BreakoutBME280
from pimoroni_i2c import PimoroniI2C

PINS_BREAKOUT_GARDEN = {"sda": 4, "scl": 5}
PINS_PICO_EXPLORER = {"sda": 20, "scl": 21}

i2c = PimoroniI2C(**PINS_BREAKOUT_GARDEN)
bme = BreakoutBME280(i2c)

Reading Temperature, Pressure and Humidity

The read method will return a tuple containing Temperature (degrees C), Pressure (Pa) and Humidity (RH %) values:

temperature, pressure, humidity = bme.read()

Configuring The Sensor

The configure method allows you to set up the oversampling, filtering and operation mode.

bme.configure(filter, standby_time, os_pressure, os_humidity, os_temp, mode)

The breakout_bme280 module includes constants for these:

Filter Settings

  • FILTER_COEFF_OFF
  • FILTER_COEFF_2
  • FILTER_COEFF_4
  • FILTER_COEFF_8
  • FILTER_COEFF_16

Oversampling Settings

  • NO_OVERSAMPLING
  • OVERSAMPLING_1X
  • OVERSAMPLING_2X
  • OVERSAMPLING_4X
  • OVERSAMPLING_8X
  • OVERSAMPLING_16X

Mode Settings

  • SLEEP_MODE
  • FORCED_MODE
  • NORMAL_MODE

Standby/Output Data Rate Settings

  • STANDBY_TIME_0_5_MS
  • STANDBY_TIME_62_5_MS
  • STANDBY_TIME_125_MS
  • STANDBY_TIME_250_MS
  • STANDBY_TIME_500_MS
  • STANDBY_TIME_1000_MS
  • STANDBY_TIME_2000_MS
  • STANDBY_TIME_4000_MS

Defaults

bme.configure(FILTER_COEFF_2, STANDBY_TIME_0_5_MS, OVERSAMPLING_16X, OVERSAMPLING_2X, OVERSAMPLING_1X)
