Getting started with SHTC3 (Qwiic) using RPi

Sensors Environmental
1

Complete newbie here when it comes to getting sensors set up with a RPi.

I have the SHTC3 temperature/humidity sensor(https://www.sparkfun.com/products/16467), and I’m trying to find out how to get started with a quick read of those measurements.

I see plenty of info and the example code for Arduino, but what drivers/libraries/etc. do I need for RPi/Python?

I have the sensor connected to the Qwiic pHAT Extension, and the power LED is lit. I grabbed the sparkfun_qwiic library files mentioned in the SHTC3 hookup guide, but I’m not seeing anything that relates to this sensor. Is there sample python code that could get me started with this RPi/SHTC3 setup?

RPi is capable of running python packages, and python is capable of running Arduino libraries - you should be able to use/run those Arduino libraries within the python IDE.

There are some boards that we provide native python packages for, but not all - you should still be able to use/modify the code provided and run it on the Pi :slight_smile:
