BME680 Breakout - Air Quality, Temperature, Pressure, Humidity Sensor

The state-of-the-art BME680 breakout lets you measure temperature, pressure, humidity, and indoor air quality, and is compatible with Raspberry Pi and Arduino platforms.

Use the BME680 breakout to monitor your indoor environment effectively; its gas resistance readings respond to changes in volatile organic compounds and can be combined with humidity data for assessing air quality.

This breakout supports the Breakout Garden system for easy integration, featuring Qwiic/STEMMA QT compatibility, and works with various microcontrollers and HATs.

Features

• Bosch BME680 sensor for temperature, pressure, humidity, and air quality measurements
• I2C interface with selectable address via ADDR solder bridge (0x76 or 0x77)
• Qwiic/STEMMA QT connector (from November 2021 models onward)
• Compatible with 3.3V or 5V systems
• Reverse polarity protection
• Raspberry Pi-compatible pinout for GPIO pins 1, 3, 5, 7, 9
• Compatible with Arduino and Raspberry Pi platforms
• Supports Raspberry Pi Pico with available C++ and MicroPython libraries

Kit Includes

• BME680 breakout board
• 1x5 male header
• 1x5 right-angle female header

The right-angle female header allows easy connection to the Raspberry Pi GPIO header while minimizing heat exposure to the sensor.

Software

Supported by Bosch’s C library and Pimoroni’s Python library for straightforward integration, including use with Raspberry Pi and RP2040 boards.

Notes

• Sensor requires a burn-in time of at least 20 minutes for stable readings
• I2C address can be switched between 0x76 and 0x77 via solder bridge for using multiple sensors on the same bus
• Dimensions: 19x19x2.75 mm (LxWxH)
