This is a BMP280/BME280 temperature/pressure/humidity sensor library for Arduino.
- Measurements:
- BMP280: Temperature / pressure / approximate altitude
- BME280: Temperature / pressure / approximate altitude / humidity
- Three operation modes:
- Normal mode: Continues conversion
- Forced mode: One-time conversion
- Standby mode: Low-power, no conversion
- Sampling configuration
- Chip detect / read chip ID
- I2C interface only
- Small flash/RAM footprint
- Operating voltage: 1.71V .. 3.6V max
- Low current:
- 1.8 uA @ 1 Hz humidity and temperature
- 2.8 uA @ 1 Hz pressure and temperature
- 3.6 uA @ 1 Hz humidity, pressure and temperature
- 0.1 uA in sleep mode
- Operating range: -40...+85 °C, 0...100 % rel. humidity, 300...1100 hPa
- I2C bus interface: max 3.4 MHz
- No additional electronic components needed

// Weather
// - forced mode, 1 sample / minute
// - pressure ×1, temperature ×1, humidity ×1
// - filter off
//
// Humidity sensing
// - forced mode, 1 sample / second
// - pressure ×0, temperature ×1, humidity ×1
// - filter off
//
// Indoor navigation
// - normal mode, t standby = 0.5 ms
// - pressure ×16, temperature ×2, humidity ×1
// - filter coefficient 16
