The `bme280` sensor platform allows you to read temperature, humidity and pressure values of a [Bosch BME280 Environmental sensor](https://cdn-shop.adafruit.com/datasheets/BST-BME280_DS001-10.pdf) connected via [I2c](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I²C) bus (SDA, SCL pins) to your [Raspberry Pi](https://www.raspberrypi.org/). It allows you to use all the operation modes of the sensor described in its datasheet.

- **name** (*Optional*): The name of the sensor
- **i2c_address** (*Optional*): I2c address of the sensor. It is 0x76 or 0x77.

- **operation_mode** (*Optional*): Power mode for the sensor. Use 2 for forced mode or 3 for normal mode. Defaults to normal mode.
- **time_standby** (*Optional*): Standby time in ms for normal mode of operation as described in the sensor datasheet. Defaults to 5 ms.
- **oversampling_temperature** (*Optional*): Oversampling multiplier as described in the sensor datasheet. Can be 0 (no sampling), 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16. Default is 1.
- **oversampling_pressure** (*Optional*): Oversampling multiplier as described in the sensor datasheet. Can be 0 (no sampling), 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16. Default is 1.
- **oversampling_humidity** (*Optional*): Oversampling multiplier as described in the sensor datasheet. Can be 0 (no sampling), 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16. Default is 1.
- **filter_mode** (*Optional*): IIR filter coeficient as described in the sensor datasheet. Default is 0, for filter off.
- **delta_temperature** (*Optional*): Absolute delta for temperature correction.
- **monitored_conditions** array (*Optional*): Conditions to monitor. Available conditions are *temperature*, *humidity* and *pressure*. By default all three are displayed.

This sensor is somehow famous for generating relatively high temperature measurements compared to other sensors (it looks like self-heating does not feel good for some encapsulations). If you experience this problem, you can define an absolute delta of temperature correction using a negative number.

## {% linkable_title Directions for installing smbus support on Raspberry Pi %}
### Directions for installing smbus support on Raspberry Pi:
Enable I2c interface with the Raspberry Pi configuration utility:
Enable I2c interface with the Raspberry Pi config utility:
```bash
# pi user environment: Enable i2c interface
sudo raspi-config
$ sudo raspi-config
```
Select `Interfacing options->I2C` choose `<Yes>` and hit `Enter`, then go to `Finish` and you'll be prompted to reboot.
Install dependencies for use the `smbus-cffi` module and enable your _homeassistant_ user to join the _i2c_ group:
```bash
# pi user environment: Install i2c dependencies and utilities
sudo apt-get install build-essential libi2c-dev i2c-tools python-dev libffi-dev
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential libi2c-dev i2c-tools python-dev libffi-dev
# pi user environment: Add homeassistant user to the i2c group
sudo addgroup homeassistant i2c
$ sudo addgroup homeassistant i2c
# pi user environment: Reboot Raspberry Pi to apply changes
sudo reboot
$ sudo reboot
```
###### Check the i2c address of the sensor
### {% linkable_title Check the i2c address of the sensor %}
After installing `i2c-tools`, a new utility is available to scan the addresses of the connected sensors:
```bash
/usr/sbin/i2cdetect -y 1
$ /usr/sbin/i2cdetect -y 1
```
It will output a table like this:
```text
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 a b c d e f
