Nicla Sense ME - BMP390 valu

[pZibre]

Hi,
I recently acquired Nicla Sense ME. I tried some examples and experimented with pressure. I want to be sure pressure is from the superior BMP390 not from BME688.
Does anyone have any experience or any suggestions how to test this?
Best regards

Hey pZibre,

I came here this morning to ask nearly the same question. The datasheet for the BHI260AP, in particular, "Table 88: Overview of FIFO Event IDs", is does not contain information for the BMP380 or BME688 sensor. So I am making a few assumptions here.....

For the BMP380 sensor(Link):
Sensor pressure(SENSOR_ID_BARO);
. . .
BHY2.begin();
pressure.begin();
. . .
pressure.toString()

For the BME688 sensor (Link):
SensorBSEC bsec(SENSOR_ID_BSEC);
. . .
BHY2.begin();
bsec.begin();
. . .
bsec.toString();
Then parse the returned string to get the information.

Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks!
Alex

Looking into this further, it seems like we are not able to get pressure data out the using the BSEC sensor type.

The BSEC Arduino library can but, the BHY2 library has a different implementation and data-structure for the BSEC data than the direct interface.
