Provides an Arduino library for reading and interpreting Bosch BME280 data over I2C, SPI or Sw SPI. Additional environment calculation functions are provided. ESP and BRZO are now supported.
Reads temperature, humidity, and pressure. Calculates altitude, equivalent sea level pressure and dew point. Provides functions for english and metric. Also reads pressure in Pa, hPa, inHg, atm, bar, torr, N/m^2 and psi.
To use this library download the zip file, decompress it to a folder named BME280. Move the folder to {Arduino Path}/libraries.
Include the library at the top of your Arduino script. #include <BME280>
Create a global or local variable. BME280 bme
In your start up call bme.begin().
Read the temperature, humidity, pressure, altitude and/or dew point.
float pres, temp, hum
bme.read(pres, temp, hum)
or
temp = bme.temp()
hum = bme.hum()
pres = bme.pres()

## MethodsConstructor used to create the I2C Bme class. All parameters have default values.
Constructor used to create the Spi Bme class. All parameters have default values except chip select.
Constructor used to create the software Spi Bme class. All parameters have default values except chip select, mosi, miso and sck.
Method used at start up to initialize the class. Starts the I2C or SPI interface. Can be called again to re-initialize the mode settings.
Note: To allow the user to provide their own wire implementation, Wire.begin() (or the equalivant) must be called before bme.begin()
* return: bool, true = success, false = failure (no device found)Method to set the sensor settings.
Method to get the sensor settings.
Read the temperature from the BME280 and return a float.
return: float = temperature
* unit: tempUnit, default = TempUnit_CelsiusRead the pressure from the BME280 and return a float with the specified unit.
return: float = pressure
* presUnit: uint8_t, default = PresUnit_hPaRead the humidity from the BME280 and return a percentage as a float.
* return: float = percent relative humidityRead the data from the BME280 with the specified units.
return: None, however, pressure, temp and humidity are changed.
* Pressure: float, reference
values: reference to storage float for pressure
* Temperature: float, reference
values: reference to storage float for temperature
* Humidity: float, reference
values: reference to storage float for humidity
* tempUnit: tempUnit, default = TempUnit_Celsius
* presUnit: uint8_t, default = PresUnit_hPa * return: [ChipModel](#chipmodel-enum) enumCalculate the altitude based on the pressure with the specified units.
Return: float altitude
* Pressure: float
values: unit independent
* AltitudeUnit: default = AltitudeUnit_Meters
values: AltitudeUnit_Meters, AltitudeUnit_Feet
* Sea Level Pressure: float, default = 1013.25
values: unit independent
* outsideTemp: float, default = 15.0
values: any float related to TempUnit
* TempUnit: default = TempUnit_Celsius
values: TempUnit_Celsius, TempUnit_Fahrenheit
Note: The formula evaluates the height difference based on difference of pressure.
- May be used to evaluate altitude over MSL. (default set)
(default referencePressure, default outsideTemp parameters ~ ISA standard)
The altitude is derived from QNH, used in aviation.
- May be used to evaluate height over MSL
(referencePressure should be equal to QFF read in meteorologic synoptic maps,
outsideTemp should be equal to local temperature)
- May be used to evaluate the height difference between two points
(referencePressure should be set to the pressure on the lower point.)Convert current pressure to equivalent sea-level pressure.
Return: float equivalent pressure at sea level.
* altitude: float
values: meters
* temp: float

* pres: float

* AltitudeUnit: default = AltitudeUnit_Meters
values: AltitudeUnit_Meters, AltitudeUnit_Feet
* TempUnit: default = TempUnit_Celsius

Note: To get correct EquivalentSeaLevel pressure (QNH or QFF) the altitude value should be independent
on measured pressure. It is necessary to use fixed altitude point e.g. the altitude of barometer
