BMP180 sensor and Arduino

   BMP180 sensor can give us information about pressure an temperature.
   This sensor is delivered on small module with 4 pins: Vin (+3.3V), GND, SDA and SCL.
   For testing, schematic is very simple:
   For control BMP180 sensor I use Adafruit-BMP085-Library, them test the example sketch.
   For a stand alone weather station with information about temperature and presure, I put a alphanumeric LCD display with 16 colons and 2 rows (1602):
and test montage is:
   I use this sketch:
// adapted sketch by niq_ro from http://nicuflorica.blogspot.ro/ & http://arduinotehniq.blogspot.com/

   In last weak-end, I received 3 pics from Dave (http://g4rvh.wordpress.com/) with a shield for Arduino Uno, made after my schematic:
   He made with board with CNC Cutter:
   I change the sketch for present the temperature in Fahrenheit, not in Celsius degree, using information from article http://www.mathsisfun.com/temperature-conversion.html:

    1. in sketch it use some data:
      // https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-BMP085-Library
      ...
      #include
      go to this link and download sensor library to work...

  4. Hi. I'm using a BMP180 to read the pressure. But at !bmp.begin() it gives me the error message and stops. Can you help clear this out for me pleasE?

    1. you have error when you compile/verify the sketch? or after upload the sketch?
      you have Adafruit_BMP085.h from https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-BMP085-Library ?
      what Arduino board you use?

  5. felicitari !!!
    folosesc un bmp280, verific sketch totul ok.il scriu pe arduino totul ok.
    dar nu imi afiseaza nimic pe display !!!!!
    oare ce am gresit?
    de la bmp 280 la arduiono folosesc: VCC- 3.3 v; gnd-gnd; scl-a5; sda-a4

    1. eu am folosit BMP180... afisajul trebuia sa indice macar "Temp.=" si "Pres.="
      vad pe net ca BMP280 e total diferit: http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Use-the-Adafruit-BMP280-Sensor-Arduino-Tuto/

    2. am conectat doar bmp 280 la arduino asa :VCC- 3.3 v; gnd-gnd; scl-a5; sda-a4, si cand citesc cu putty imi vin date de temp si presiune, dar cand folosesc si lcd (se lumineaza displayul dar nu afiseaza nimik)
      mmmhhhhhh????
      PS: am alimentat bmp280 si pe 5 v dar tot nimik
