BME280 with NRF5340 display (T,P,H) problem

Hello everybody,

I'm having a problem to display the temperature, pressure and humidity.

i followed this tutorial on a NRF5340 https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/b/archives/posts/nrf-connect-sdk-tutorial---part-3-temporary

in my case i'm using SES V5.34a avec NRF Connect v3.7.0 with NRF SDK V1.5.1

i'm working with BME280 adafruit! (3-5)voltage

below is my nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp.overlay

as the scl pin is on P1.03 and the sda is on P1.02

&i2c1 {
    compatible = "nordic,nrf-twim";
	status = "okay";
	sda-pin = < 34-32 >;
	scl-pin = < 34-31 >;
    clock-frequency = <100000>;  
	
	/* The I2C address could be one of two, here 0x76 is assumed */
	bme280@76 {
		compatible = "bosch,bme280";
		reg = <0x76>;
		label = "BME280";
	};
};

&uart1 {
    status = "disabled";
};

and my prj.conf is below

CONFIG_SENSOR=y
CONFIG_BME280=y
CONFIG_I2C_1=y

and for the main.c i useed the code linked on the nfr/samples/sensor/bme280

		k_sleep(K_MSEC(1000));

my build is going well on SES and it's successful but when i try west flash from bash or Cmd prompt i'm always getting errors

could you please help me solve my problem and be able to get returned values of my sensor bme280

or if you see that i have something wrong with my configuration, don't hesitate to tell . 
i will really appreciate your help and contribution 

thank you in advance

  • Hello,

    Thank you for the detailed description.

    I found a thing or two that might be causing this. I am trying to reproduce the error and will get back to you shortly.

    Regards,

  • Hello Hakon,
    i figured out the problem of flashing 
    it's related to the nrfjprog which was causing a problem
    and i succeeded to flash my NRF5340 and communicate with the NRF connect 
    but now i'm having a little problem simpler then all of this 
    i m trying to communicate with BME280 but everytime i'm getting 

    *** Booting Zephyr OS build v2.4.99-ncs2 ***
    No device "BME280" found; did initialization fail?

    which is related to the main.c on the bme280 related to zephyr projects

    so the ponter is blocked on Null 
     do you have a suggestion on how to fix it 
    or do you recommend something to replace it with 

  • Could you please try the following for your I2C pins in the overlay?

        sda-pin = < 34 >; //(32+2)
        scl-pin = < 35 >; //(32+3)

    Let me know how it goes, as I have not yet tested this myself.

  • I see that the error occurs after the overlay file, nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp.overlay, has been processed(C:/Users/rzaafouri/ncs/v1.5.1/nrf/samples/sensor/bme280/boards/nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp.overlay).

    "Error: nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp.dts.pre.tmp:698.16-17 syntax error"

    If you check the build folder and open the file nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp.dts.pre.tmp and scroll down to line 698 you should find the syntax error causing this message.

  • i changed the pins numbers and i tried again always the same output 

    *** Booting Zephyr OS build v2.4.99-ncs2 ***
    No device "BME280" found; did initialization fail? "

    and the line 698 in the nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp.dts.pre.tmp is the line 8 below and so on 
    i think it's blocked on pins level 
    i don't know what can be causing this output ??
