Exercise 5: The I2C bus and the SHT30 Temperature and Humidity Sensor

Introduction

While the DHT11 uses a proprietary protocol the SHT30 make use of a standardized protocol: the I2C protocol, invented by Philips at the beginning of the 1980's. To get you going with I2C please have a look at https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/i2c/all where the protocol is nicely described. You can find all the details about the SHT30 in its data sheet:

Exercise 1: I2C Bus Scan

I2C is supported by a driver in the MicroPython binary.

Write a script that scans the I2C bus and prints all available I2C addresses in the following form:

In the example above only the SHT30 with its address B: 0x45 is connected to the I2C bus.

Exercise 2: Read out the SHT30

This time we are going to be lazy and just use a pure Python driver written by 'Roberto Sánchez which I attached to this exercise sheet.

I will however give no further explication on how to use the driver. Please read the source code and find out yourself which methods are implemented and how to use the driver.

The driver is already hard-coded in the MicroPython binary and does not need to be uploaded to the ESP32 to be used.
