Parts comparison

Compare electronics parts

Put up to four catalogue parts side by side. BananaBoard shows exact structured values, their conditions and sources—and keeps unknown or inapplicable fields explicit.

Choose 2–4 parts

Values come directly from the source-cited catalogue. Unknown is kept unknown; this tool does not infer compatibility.

Operating Voltage

3 – 5.5 VSource
BME280
Varies by vendor

The bare die is 1.71-3.6V and NOT 5V tolerant, but most breakouts (GY-BME280, Adafruit, SparkFun...) add an onboard regulator/level shifter — check your specific board before assuming 5V is safe. When in doubt, 3.3V always works.

The die also supports SPI (3- or 4-wire), but this record models the common 4-pin I2C-only breakout.

Address is 0x76 (SDO low) or 0x77 (SDO high) — check the breakout's default.

The Bosch die is a fixed 2.5×2.5×0.93mm LGA, but breakout PCB size varies a lot between vendors (commonly 11×11mm to 15×12mm).
