AHT20+BMP280 Sensor - Communication with BMP280 failed

Hi,

Has anybody tried this board and managed to get it working?

The I2C scan can’t find either possible addresses for the BMP280 and I get the following errors.
[22:55:15][E][component:112]: Component bmp280.sensor was marked as failed.
[22:55:19][E][bmp280.sensor:102]: Communication with BMP280 failed!

The AHT20 can communicate, with a warning. That proves the I2C bus is ok.
[22:55:15][D][aht10:083]: AHT10 is busy, waiting...

My setup:

  • Home Assistant
    • Core: 2022.8.0
    • OS: 8.4
    • ESPHome: 2022.6.2
  • ESP8266: D1 Mini (known working board)
    • SCL on D1
    • SDA on D2
    • I2C at 100kHz
  • AHT20+BMP280
    • VCC: 3V3
    • Onboard 4k7Ω I2C pullups

Key points

  • My D1 Mini has been used before and I know it works.
  • I tried two different AHT20+BMP280 boards after seeing forum posts about faulty BMP280 chips, but both my boards failed.
  • The AHT20 is communicating so I know my I2C bus is configured correctly.
  • For the BMP280 address, I’ve tried 0x77 and 0x76. Nether addresses are found by the I2C scan in the logs.
  • I’ve also tried BME280 in case the E/P was a typo.
  • I started with 50kHz

I’ve asked the seller how the BMP280 SDO pin is connected. Just waiting on their response.
Connecting SDO to VDDIO sets the I2C address to 0x77.
Connecting SDO to GND sets the I2C address to 0x76.
If SDO is left floating, the I2C address is undefined, which may explain why it doesn’t show up in the I2C scan.

I also followed the advice from this comment and tried both 0x77 and 0x76 after a hard power cycle, but I had no luck.

I pulled the components off one of my boards and found that pin 5 of the BMP280 is connected to VDDIO which means the I2C address is definitely 0x77. The BMP280 still can’t be detected on the I2C bus though (obviously with the boards I didn’t pull the components off).
SDA and SCL on the BMP280 are also connected the right way around.
VDD and VDDIO are connected together, and both are powered with 3V3.

I have a solution.

Do not buy AHT20+BMP280 from the AliExpress seller PCBFUN Store. Their support is terrible, and all 6 of the boards I purchased did not work.

Instead, do buy AHT20+BMP280 from the AliExpress seller MT Technology Co., Ltd.. Their support is ok, and their boards worked. I now have AHT20 and BMP280 sensors working, and all I had to do was swap out the old module for a new one.

I bought 6 pieces from AliExpress seller A+A+A Store.

Four arrived fully working, 1 had short circuit between VDD and SDA, 1 shows only AHT20 (BMP280 does not appear in scan).

I’ve just contacted the seller, no response yet.
