ESP32 ESP-IDF component for BH1750 ambient light sensor

Wiki

EN | RU

Tested on

  1. ESP32 ESP-IDF v6.0.1

SAST Tools

PVS-Studio - static analyzer for C, C++, C#, and Java code.

Features

  1. Recorded illuminance values from 1 to 65535 lux.
  2. Support some sensors on one device with zh_pca9548a.

Attention

For correct operation, please enable the following settings in the menuconfig:

I2C_ISR_IRAM_SAFE
I2C_MASTER_ISR_HANDLER_IN_IRAM

Using

In an existing project, run the following command to install the component:

cd ../your_project/components
git clone https://github.com/aZholtikov/zh_bh1750.git

In the application, add the component:

#include "zh_bh1750.h"

Example

Reading the sensor:

#include "zh_bh1750.h"

#define I2C_PORT (I2C_NUM_MAX - 1)

zh_bh1750_handle_t bh1750_handle = {0};

void app_main(void)
{
    esp_log_level_set("zh_bh1750", ESP_LOG_ERROR);
    i2c_master_bus_config_t i2c_bus_config = {
        .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT,
        .i2c_port = I2C_PORT,
        .scl_io_num = GPIO_NUM_22,
        .sda_io_num = GPIO_NUM_21,
        .glitch_ignore_cnt = 7,
        .flags.enable_internal_pullup = true,
    };
    i2c_master_bus_handle_t i2c_bus_handle;
    i2c_new_master_bus(&i2c_bus_config, &i2c_bus_handle);
    zh_bh1750_init_config_t config = ZH_BH1750_INIT_CONFIG_DEFAULT();
    config.i2c_handle = i2c_bus_handle;
    zh_bh1750_init(&config, &bh1750_handle);
    float lux = 0.0;
    for (;;)
    {
        zh_bh1750_read(&bh1750_handle, &lux);
        printf("Lux %0.2f\n", lux);
        const zh_bh1750_stats_t *stats = zh_bh1750_get_stats();
        printf("Number of i2c driver error: %ld.\n", stats->i2c_driver_error);
        vTaskDelay(5000 / portTICK_PERIOD_MS);
    }
}

3 sensor on one device:

#include "zh_pca9548a.h"
