SPIDER Automation (BME688) Environmental Sensor

Description:

The SPIDER Automation BME688 Environmental Sensor is a breakout that combines a gas scanning sensor with temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure sensing for a complete environmental sensor in a single package. The gas sensor on the BME688 can detect a wide variety of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), and other gases such as carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the part per billion (ppb) range. Combine that with precise temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure, and the BME688 can work as a completely standalone environmental sensor all in a 1in. x 1in. breakout!

The sensor communicates via either I²C or SPI. We’ve broken out the I²C pins to our Molex PicoBlade connector so no soldering is required to connect it to the rest of your system, but if you would prefer, both the I²C and SPI pins are also broken out to standard 0.1-in.-spaced pins.

Note: In order to avoid contamination of its gas scanning capabilities, DO NOT touch the metallic casing of the BME688 sensor. Please, handle this with care.
