Bosch BME688 AI Gas Sensor
Bosch BME688 AI Gas Sensor offers a 1.2V to 3.6V supply voltage range and 3mm x 3mm x 0.93mm package dimensions. This sensor features integrated high linearity and high-accuracy pressure, humidity, and temperature sensors. The BME688 gas sensor can detect Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) and other gases such as hydrogen and carbon monoxide in the parts per billion (ppb) range. Bosch BME688 AI Gas Sensor is ideal for mobile and connected applications where size and low power consumption are critical requirements.
This sensor contains a gas scanner and consists of 3 parts:
- BME688 hardware that is fully backward compatible to the BME680, but with a higher gas resistance range enabled in the ASIC
- BSEC Software 2.0
- BME Al-Studio enabling users to train the BME688 on special applications
