Hi everyone, I'm having some difficulty interfacing with a BMP388 (a CJMCU-388 clone to be precise) pressure sensor. I can't get the sensor to show up in I2C or SPI mode.
Connections
For I2C, the connections I made are identical to that in the Adafruit tutorial, like this:
Later, I also tried SPI mode, in which case the wiring was as follows:
https://learn.adafruit.com/assets/96908
Code
I tried running the basic Adafruit BMP3XX code in I2C mode:
#include <Wire.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Adafruit_Sensor.h>
#include "Adafruit_BMP3XX.h"
#define BMP_SCK 13
#define BMP_MISO 12
#define BMP_MOSI 11
#define BMP_CS 10
#define SEALEVELPRESSURE_HPA (1013.25)
Adafruit_BMP3XX bmp;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
while (!Serial);
Serial.println("Adafruit BMP388 / BMP390 test");
if (!bmp.begin_I2C()) { // hardware I2C mode, can pass in address & alt Wire
//if (! bmp.begin_SPI(BMP_CS)) { // hardware SPI mode
//if (! bmp.begin_SPI(BMP_CS, BMP_SCK, BMP_MISO, BMP_MOSI)) { // software SPI mode
Serial.println("Could not find a valid BMP3 sensor, check wiring!");
while (1);
}
// Set up oversampling and filter initialization
bmp.setTemperatureOversampling(BMP3_OVERSAMPLING_8X);
bmp.setPressureOversampling(BMP3_OVERSAMPLING_4X);
bmp.setIIRFilterCoeff(BMP3_IIR_FILTER_COEFF_3);
bmp.setOutputDataRate(BMP3_ODR_50_HZ);
}
void loop() {
if (! bmp.performReading()) {
Serial.println("Failed to perform reading :(");
return;
}
Serial.print("Temperature = ");
Serial.print(bmp.temperature);
Serial.println(" *C");
Serial.print("Pressure = ");
Serial.print(bmp.pressure / 100.0);
Serial.println(" hPa");
Serial.print("Approx. Altitude = ");
Serial.print(bmp.readAltitude(SEALEVELPRESSURE_HPA));
Serial.println(" m");
Serial.println();
delay(2000);
}
and SPI mode:
```#include <Wire.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Adafruit_Sensor.h>
#include "Adafruit_BMP3XX.h"
#define BMP_SCK 13
#define BMP_MISO 12
#define BMP_MOSI 11
#define BMP_CS 10
#define SEALEVELPRESSURE_HPA (1013.25)
Adafruit_BMP3XX bmp;
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
while (!Serial);
Serial.println("Adafruit BMP388 / BMP390 test");
//if (!bmp.begin_I2C()) { // hardware I2C mode, can pass in address & alt Wire
if (! bmp.begin_SPI(BMP_CS)) { // hardware SPI mode
//if (! bmp.begin_SPI(BMP_CS, BMP_SCK, BMP_MISO, BMP_MOSI)) { // software SPI mode
Serial.println("Could not find a valid BMP3 sensor, check wiring!");
while (1);
}
// Set up oversampling and filter initialization
bmp.setTemperatureOversampling(BMP3_OVERSAMPLING_8X);
bmp.setPressureOversampling(BMP3_OVERSAMPLING_4X);
bmp.setIIRFilterCoeff(BMP3_IIR_FILTER_COEFF_3);
bmp.setOutputDataRate(BMP3_ODR_50_HZ);
}
void loop() {
if (! bmp.performReading()) {
Serial.println("Failed to perform reading :(");
return;
}
Serial.print("Temperature = ");
Serial.print(bmp.temperature);
Serial.println(" *C");
Serial.print("Pressure = ");
Serial.print(bmp.pressure / 100.0);
Serial.println(" hPa");
Serial.print("Approx. Altitude = ");
Serial.print(bmp.readAltitude(SEALEVELPRESSURE_HPA));
Serial.println(" m");
Serial.println();
delay(2000);
}
In both cases, I got the "Could not find a valid BMP3 sensor, check wiring!" message. I also tried running an I2C scanner to detect any I2C addresses, but my sensor was not detected:
#include <Wire.h>
void setup() {
Wire.begin();
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial); // Leonardo: wait for Serial Monitor
Serial.println("\nI2C Scanner");
}
void loop() {
int nDevices = 0;
Serial.println("Scanning...");
for (byte address = 1; address < 127; ++address) {
// The i2c_scanner uses the return value of
// the Wire.endTransmission to see if
// a device did acknowledge to the address.
Wire.beginTransmission(address);
byte error = Wire.endTransmission();
if (error == 0) {
Serial.print("I2C device found at address 0x");
if (address < 16) {
Serial.print("0");
}
Serial.print(address, HEX);
Serial.println(" !");
++nDevices;
} else if (error == 4) {
Serial.print("Unknown error at address 0x");
if (address < 16) {
Serial.print("0");
}
Serial.println(address, HEX);
}
}
if (nDevices == 0) {
Serial.println("No I2C devices found\n");
} else {
Serial.println("done\n");
}
delay(5000); // Wait 5 seconds for next scan
}
What I do know is that the 5V to 3.3V voltage regulator on the breakout board is at least functional. Is there any more debugging I can do (without an oscilloscope sadly), or is this the end of the road for my BMP388? Any advice is very welcome.
