BME280 Temperature, Humidity and Pressure Sensor

Sensor

Bosch sensor that measures temperature, humidity and air pressure on one chip; talks over I2C. Far more stable and precise than the DHT series, and pressure also gives you altitude. Used in weather station projects. Not to be confused with the look-alike BMP280, which does not measure humidity.
