This feature is included only in tasmota-sensors.bin

Otherwise you must compile your build. Add the following to user_config_override.h:

#ifndef USE_VEML6070
#define USE_VEML6070            // Add I2C code for VEML6070 sensor (+0k5 code)
#endif

This little sensor is a great way to add UV light sensing to any microcontroller project. The VEML6070 from Vishay has a true UV A light sensor and an I²C-controlled ADC that will take readings and integrate them for you over ~60ms to 500ms." See VEML6070 UV Sensor for more information.

Configuration

Wiring

VEML6070	ESP8266
GND	GND
VCC	3.3V
SDA	GPIOx
SCL	GPIOy

Tasmota

In the Configuration -> Configure Module page assign:

1. GPIOx to I2C SDA (6)
2. GPIOy to I2C SCL (5)

Tasmota Main

After a reboot the driver will detect VEML6070 automatically and display UV light intensity.
