Sparkfun Environmental Combo Shield with ENS160 and BME280 ##########################################################

Overview


The Sparkfun Environmental Combo Shield_ features a ScioSense ENS160 Digital Metal Oxide Multi-Gas Sensor, a Bosch BME280 Humidity Sensor and two Qwiic connectors. It measures temperature, humidity, pressure, CO2 and VOC (volatile organic compounds).

Requirements


This shield can be used with boards which provide an I2C connector, for example STEMMA QT or Qwiic connectors. The target board must define a zephyr_i2c node label. See :ref:shields for more details.

Pin Assignments

+--------------+---------------------------+ | Shield Pin | Function | +==============+===========================+ | SDA | ENS160 and BME280 I2C SDA | +--------------+---------------------------+ | SCL | ENS160 and BME280 I2C SCL | +--------------+---------------------------+ | INT | ENS160 interrupt output | +--------------+---------------------------+

To use the interrupt output from the ENS160, you need to connect a wire from the shield INT output to a suitable GPIO on your microcontroller board, and to modify the devicetree settings. See :dtcompatible:sciosense,ens160 for options.

See also :dtcompatible:bosch,bme280 for the BME280 sensor.

Programming


Set --shield sparkfun_environmental_combo when you invoke west build. For example when running the :zephyr:code-sample:bme280 sample:

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/sensor/bme280 :board: adafruit_qt_py_rp2040 :shield: sparkfun_environmental_combo :goals: build

You can also use the :zephyr:code-sample:sensor_shell sample:

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/sensor/sensor_shell :board: adafruit_qt_py_rp2040 :shield: sparkfun_environmental_combo :goals: build
