BMP280 Sensor

Pi4J_V2-TemperatureSensor

Implement Temperature/Pressure BMP280

https://www.digikey.com/en/datasheets/bosch-sensortec/bosch-sensortec-bst-bmp280-ds001-19

The I2C example program has the assumption the BMP280 is connected to Pi bus 1, and the device is factory configured to operate as device address 0x77. If these assumptions are not possible, the bus and device address value can be passed as parms. Or modify the BMP280I2cExample program to use your specific bus and device address.

The SPI example assumes SPI bus 0, ChipSelect 0.

The program uses org.slf4j.simple Class SimpleLogger as suggested by the Pi4j_V2 documentation. Consult that logger class documentation to understand its various logging options.

The I2C connection functions as written in the Phillips spec.

I2C connection path.

1. ./mvnw clean package
2. cd target/distribution
3. sudo ./runBMP280I2C.sh Args if bus and or address must be set -b 0x01 -a 0x77

The SPI connection per the Datasheet supports MODE0 or MODE3. The spec shows reading a register consists of:

1. Chip select driven low
2. Eight clocks pulses to write the register address via the Pi MOSI
3. Multiple eight clock pulses for each byte of data returned thru the Pi MISO
4. Chip select driven high

In either Mode0 or Mode3 the read data bytes are miss-read and the clock pulses are not signaled for the expected reads. The SPI open flags support configuration of writing a determined number of bytes before continuing the clock pulses for the expected read data . This however requires the BMP280 chip connect using the 3-wire configuration and the chips config register be modified. As most chips use 4-wire configuration I use 4-wire, and use a configurable GPIO as the CS (chip select)

SPI connection path.

1. ./mvnw clean package
2. cd target/distribution
3. sudo ./runBMP280SPI.sh

Use of different bus or device address, use the applicable values in the following command. sudo ./runBMP280I2C.sh -b 0x01 -a 0x77

Will create the BMP280 device to create a BMP280Device instance Call the various temperature and pressure methods defined in the interface. The device defaults to Pi Bus 1 and device address 0X77

No parameters are required. However, if ‘any’ parameter value is to be supplied: parms: -b hex value bus -a hex value address -t trace
trace values : “trace”, “debug”, “info”, “warn”, “error” or “off” Default “info”

The file BMP280.pdf documents a method of connecting an Adafruit BMP280 to a Pi.
