Positioning of the BME680 sensor in a housing

[FanDE]

Hi, i am doing research how i'ts the best way to place the BME680 sensor in a housing. In the "Handling, Soldering and Mounting Instructions (Rev. 1.6 / BST-BME680-HS000-06) on page 10 there are a few placing hints. But there are also noted two other documents which would be helpful:

1. BME680 integration guideline (BST-BME680-HS001-01) 

2. Application Handbook (BST-BME680-AN016-02)

I looked on the Bosch Sensortec Homepage and also in google, but I can't find anything. So I would like to know if you can give me a link for this two documents. If you have any other design/integration guidelines for placing the sensor in a box please post it too.

Thank you in advance!

I was wondering the same question.

It would be great to have more precise information on the dimensions of the dedicated hole for the sensor.

There are no specific requirements for the size and depth of the cavity, just ensure that the air can circulate normally.
