Adafruit BMP280 I2C or SPI Barometric Pressure & Altitude Sensor

OverviewPinoutWiringRelated groups
Adafruit BMP280 I2C or SPI Barometric Pressure & Altitude Sensor — Adafruit — 4059

Bosch has stepped up their game with their BMP280 sensor, an environmental sensor with temperature, barometric pressure that is the next generation upgrade to the BMP085/BMP180/BMP183. This sensor is great for all sorts of weather sensing and can even be used in both I2C and SPI!
