ESP8266 and GY-21P module example

This module  combines a BMP280 sensor and an SI7021 sensor. The on-board BMP280+SI7021 sensor measures atmospheric pressure from 30kPa to 110kPa as well as relative humidity and temperature.

Pressure range: 300-1100 hPa (9000 meters above sea level at -500m)
Relative accuracy (at 950 – 1050 hPa at 25 ° C): ± 0.12 hPa, equiv. to ± 1 m
Absolute accuracy (at (950 – 1050 hPa, 0 – +40 ° C): ± 0.12 hPa, equiv. To ± 1 m
Mains voltage: 1.8V – 3.6V
Power consumption: 2.7µA at 1Hz readout rate
Temperature range: -40 to + 85 ° C

Altitude Range: 0 to 30,000 ft (9.2 km), relative accuracy of 3.3 ft (1 m) at sea level, 6.6 (2 m) at 30,000 ft.

Layout

Code

I used a variety of Adafruit libraries for this example, I took the default examples and made the following out of them

https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Sensor

https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_BMP280_Library

https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Si7021

[codesyntax lang=”cpp”]

include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_Sensor.h>
#include <Adafruit_BMP280.h>
#include "Adafruit_Si7021.h"

Adafruit_BMP280 bme; // I2C
Adafruit_Si7021 sensor = Adafruit_Si7021();

void setup() 
{
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("BMP280 and SI7021 (GY-21p) test");

if (!bme.begin()) 
{ 
Serial.println("Could not find a valid BMP280 sensor, check wiring!");
while (1);
}

if (!sensor.begin()) 
{
Serial.println("Did not find Si7021 sensor!");
while (true);
}
}

void loop() 
{
Serial.println("BMP280 results");
Serial.print("Temperature = ");
Serial.print(bme.readTemperature());
Serial.println(" *C");
Serial.print("Pressure = ");
Serial.print(bme.readPressure());
Serial.println(" Pa");
Serial.print("Approx altitude = ");
Serial.print(bme.readAltitude(1013.25)); // this should be adjusted to your local forcase
Serial.println(" m");
Serial.println();

Serial.println("SI7021 results");
Serial.print("Humidity: "); 
Serial.println(sensor.readHumidity(), 2);
Serial.print("Temperature: "); 
Serial.println(sensor.readTemperature(), 2);
Serial.println();
delay(2000);
}

Output

Open the serial monitor and you should see something like this

BMP280 results
Temperature = 27.26 *C
Pressure = 99042.63 Pa
Approx altitude = 191.78 m

SI7021 results
Humidity: 31.04
Temperature: 27.30

BMP280 results
Temperature = 28.43 *C
Pressure = 99044.82 Pa
Approx altitude = 191.60 m

SI7021 results
Humidity: 32.59
Temperature: 28.56

BMP280 results
Temperature = 28.17 *C
Pressure = 99037.41 Pa
Approx altitude = 192.22 m

SI7021 results
Humidity: 32.88
Temperature: 28.46

You can see the temperature output is close between the sensors
