Final Datasheet BME280 Environmental sensor Page 3 Gaming, e.g flying toys Camera (DSC, video) Portable health care devices Home weather stations Flying toys Watches General Description The BME280 is as combined digital humidity, pressure and temperature sensor based on proven sensing principles. The sensor module is housed in an extremely compact metal-lid LGA package with a footprint of only 2.5 x 2.5 mm with a height of 0.93 mm. Its small dimensions and its low power consumption allow the implementation in battery driven devices such as handsets, GPS modules or watches. The BME280 is register and performance compatible to the Bosch Sensortec BMP280 digital pressure sensor (see chapter 5.2 for details). The BME280 achieves high performance in all applications requiring humidity and pressure measurement. These emerging applications of home automation control, in-door navigation, health care as well as GPS refinement require a high accuracy and a low TCO at the same time. The humidity sensor provides an extremely fast response time for fast context awareness applications and high overall accuracy over a wide temperature range. The pressure sensor is an absolute barometric pressure sensor with extremely high accuracy and resolution and drastically lower noise than the Bosch Sensortec BMP180. The integrated temperature sensor has been optimized for lowest noise and highest resolution. Its output is used for temperature compensation of the pressure and humidity sensors and can also be used for estimation of the ambient temperature. The sensor provides both SPI and IC interfaces and can be supplied using 1.71 to 3.6 V for the sensor supply VDD and 1.2 to 3.6 V for the interface supply VDDIO. Measurements can be triggered by the host or performed in regular intervals. When the sensor is disabled, current consumption drops to 0.1 A. BME280 can be operated in three power modes (see chapter 3.3): sleep mode normal mode forced mode In order to tailor data rate, noise, response time and current consumption to the needs of the user, a variety of oversampling modes, filter modes and data rates can be selected.

The hysteresis is defined as the difference between measurements of the humidity up / down branch and the averaged curve of both branches 5 Non-linear contributions to the sensor data are corrected during the calculation of the relative humidity by the compensation formulas described in section 4.2.3. 6 The air-flow in direction to the vent-hole of the device has to be dimensioned in a way that a sufficient air exchange inside to outside will be possible. To observe effects on the response time-scale of the device an air-flow velocity of approx. 1 m/s is needed. 3 BST-BME280-DS001-10 | Revision 1.1 | May 2015 Bosch Sensortec (c) Bosch Sensortec GmbH reserves all rights even in the event of industrial property rights.

After powering up, the sensor settles in sleep mode (described in chapter 3.3.2). It is prohibited to keep any interface pin (SDI, SDO, SCK or CSB) at a logical high level when VDDIO is switched off. Such a configuration can permanently damage the device due an excessive current flow through the ESD protection diodes. If VDDIO is supplied, but VDD is not, the interface pins are kept at a high-Z level. The bus can therefore already be used freely before the BME280 VDD supply is established. Resetting the sensor is possible by cycling VDD level or by writing a soft reset command. Cycling the VDDIO level will not cause a reset. 3.3 Sensor modes The BME280 offers three sensor modes: sleep mode, forced mode and normal mode. These can be selected using the mode[1:0] setting (see chapter 5.4.5). The available modes are: Sleep mode: no operation, all registers accessible, lowest power, selected after startup Forced mode: perform one measurement, store results and return to sleep mode Normal mode: perpetual cycling of measurements and inactive periods. The modes will be explained in detail in chapters 3.3.2 (sleep mode), 3.3.3 (forced mode) and 3.3.4 (normal mode). 3.3.1 Sensor mode transitions The supported mode transitions are shown in Figure 3. If the device is currently performing a measurement, execution of mode switching commands is delayed until the end of the currently running measurement period. Further mode change commands or other write commands to the register ctrl_hum are ignored until the mode change command has been executed. Mode transitions other than the ones shown below are tested for stability but do not represent recommended use of the device. Power OFF (VDD or VDDIO = 0) VDD and VDDIO supplied Sleep Normal = 00 [1:0] e d o M = 11 [1:0] e d o M Mode[1:0 ] = 01 (cyclic standby and measurement periods) Mode[1:0] = 01 Forced (one measurement period) Figure 3: Sensor mode transition diagram BST-BME280-DS001-10 | Revision 1.1 | May 2015 Bosch Sensortec (c) Bosch Sensortec GmbH reserves all rights even in the event of industrial property rights.

Note: Specifications within this document are subject to change without notice. Final Datasheet BME280 Environmental sensor Page 13 3.3.2 Sleep mode Sleep mode is entered by default after power on reset. In sleep mode, no measurements are performed and power consumption (IDDSM) is at a minimum. All registers are accessible; Chip-ID and compensation coefficients can be read. There are no special restrictions on interface timings. current 3.3.3 Forced mode In forced mode, a single measurement is performed in accordance to the selected measurement and filter options. When the measurement is finished, the sensor returns to sleep mode and the measurement results can be obtained from the data registers. For a next measurement, forced mode needs to be selected again. This is similar to BMP180 operation. Using forced mode is recommended for applications which require low sampling rate or hostbased synchronization. The timing diagram is shown below. Write POR settings Mode[1:0] = 01 Data readout Mode[1:0] = 01 Measurement H Measurement P Measurement T IDDSB IDDSL Measurement H Measurement T IDDP IDDT IDDH Measurement P cycle time = rate of force mode tmeasure time Figure 4: Forced mode timing diagram 3.3.4 Normal mode Normal mode comprises an automated perpetual cycling between an (active) measurement period and an (inactive) standby period. The measurements are performed in accordance to the selected measurement and filter options. The standby time is determined by the setting t_sb[2:0] and can be set to between 0.5 and 1000 ms according to Table 27. The total cycle time depends on the sum of the active time (see chapter 9) and standby time tstandby. The current in the standby period (IDDSB) is slightly higher than in sleep mode. After setting the measurement and filter options and enabling normal mode, the last measurement results can always be obtained at the data registers without the need of further write accesses. Using normal mode is recommended when using the IIR filter. This is useful for applications in which short-term disturbances (e.g. blowing into the sensor) should be filtered.

After the measurement period, the pressure and temperature data can be passed through an optional IIR filter, which removes short-term fluctuations in pressure (e.g. caused by slamming a door). For humidity, such a filter is not needed and has not been implemented. The flow is depicted in the diagram below.

Final Datasheet BME280 Environmental sensor Page 15 3.4.1 Humidity measurement The humidity measurement can be enabled or skipped. When enabled, several oversampling options exist. The humidity measurement is controlled by the osrs_h[2:0] setting, which is detailed in chapter 5.4.3. For the humidity measurement, oversampling is possible to reduce the noise. The resolution of the humidity measurement is fixed at 16 bit ADC output. 3.4.2 Pressure measurement Pressure measurement can be enabled or skipped. When enabled, several oversampling options exist. The pressure measurement is controlled by the osrs_p[2:0] setting which is detailed in chapter 5.4.5. For the pressure measurement, oversampling is possible to reduce the noise. The resolution of the pressure data depends on the IIR filter (see chapter 3.4.4) and the oversampling setting (see chapter 5.4.5): When the IIR filter is enabled, the pressure resolution is 20 bit. When the IIR filter is disabled, the pressure resolution is 16 + (osrs_p - 1) bit, e.g. 18 bit when osrs_p is set to `3'. 3.4.3 Temperature measurement Temperature measurement can be enabled or skipped. Skipping the measurement could be useful to measure pressure extremely rapidly. When enabled, several oversampling options exist. The temperature measurement is controlled by the osrs_t[2:0] setting which is detailed in chapter 5.4.5. For the temperature measurement, oversampling is possible to reduce the noise. The resolution of the temperature data depends on the IIR filter (see chapter 3.4.4) and the oversampling setting (see chapter 5.4.5): When the IIR filter is enabled, the temperature resolution is 20 bit. When the IIR filter is disabled, the temperature resolution is 16 + (osrs_t - 1) bit, e.g. 18 bit when osrs_t is set to `3'. 3.4.4 IIR filter The humidity value inside the sensor does not fluctuate rapidly and does not require low pass filtering. However, the environmental pressure is subject to many short-term changes, caused e.g. by slamming of a door or window, or wind blowing into the sensor. To suppress these disturbances in the output data without causing additional interface traffic and processor work load, the BME280 features an internal IIR filter. It effectively reduces the bandwidth of the temperature and pressure output signals10 and increases the resolution of the pressure and temperature output data to 20 bit. The output of a next measurement step is filtered using the following formula: Data_filtered_old is the data coming from the current filter memory, and data_ADC is the data coming from current ADC acquisition. Data_filtered is the new value of filter memory and the value that will be sent to the output registers. The IIR filter can be configured to different filter coefficients, which slows down the response to the sensor inputs. Note that the response time with enabled IIR filter depends on the number of 10 Since the BME280 does not sample continuously, filtering can suffer from signals with a frequency higher than the sampling rate of the sensor. E.g. environmental fluctuations caused by windows being opened and closed might have a frequency <5 Hz. Consequently, a sampling rate of ODR = 10 Hz is sufficient to obey the Nyquist theorem.

When writing to the register filter, the filter is reset. The next ADC values will the pass through the filter unchanged and become the initial memory values for the filter. If temperature or pressure measurements are skipped, the corresponding filter memory will be kept unchanged even though the output registers are set to 0x80000. When the previously skipped measurement is re-enabled, the output will be filtered using the filter memory from the last time when the measurement was not skipped. If this is not desired, please write to the filter register in order to re-initialize the filter.

Final Datasheet BME280 Environmental sensor Page 17 3.5 Recommended modes of operation The different oversampling options, filter settings and sensor modes result in a large number of possible settings. In this chapter, a number of settings recommended for various scenarios are presented. 3.5.1 Weather monitoring Description: Only a very low data rate is needed. Power consumption is minimal. Noise of pressure values is of no concern. Humidity, pressure and temperature are monitored. Table 7: Settings and performance for weather monitoring Suggested settings for weather monitoring Sensor mode forced mode, 1 sample / minute Oversampling settings pressure x1, temperature x1, humidity x1 IIR filter settings filter off Performance for suggested settings Current consumption 0.16 A RMS Noise 3.3 Pa / 30 cm, 0.07 %RH Data output rate 1/60 Hz 3.5.2 Humidity sensing Description: A low data rate is needed. Power consumption is minimal. Forced mode is used to minimize power consumption and to synchronize readout, but using normal mode would also be possible. Table 8: Settings and performance for humidity sensing Suggested settings for weather monitoring Sensor mode forced mode, 1 sample / second Oversampling settings pressure x0, temperature x1, humidity x1 IIR filter settings filter off Performance for suggested settings Current consumption 2.9 A RMS Noise 0.07 %RH Data output rate 1 Hz 3.5.3 Indoor navigation Lowest possible altitude noise is needed. A very low bandwidth is preferred. Increased power consumption is tolerated. Humidity is measured to help detect room changes. This setting is suggested for the Android settings `SENSOR_DELAY_NORMAL' and `SENSOR_DELAY_UI'.

The stated values were determined in a controlled environment and are based on the average standard deviation of 32 consecutive measurement points taken at highest sampling speed. This is needed in order to exclude long term drifts from the noise measurement. The noise depends both on humidity/pressure oversampling and temperature oversampling, since the temperature value is used for humidity/pressure temperature compensation. The oversampling combinations use below results in an optimal power to noise ratio.

Data readout To read out data after a conversion, it is strongly recommended to use a burst read and not address every register individually. This will prevent a possible mix-up of bytes belonging to different measurements and reduce interface traffic. Note that in IC mode, even when pressure was not measured, reading the unused registers is faster than reading temperature and humidity data separately. Data readout is done by starting a burst read from 0xF7 to 0xFC (temperature and pressure) or from 0xF7 to 0xFE (temperature, pressure and humidity). The data are read out in an unsigned 20-bit format both for pressure and for temperature and in an unsigned 16-bit format for humidity. It is strongly recommended to use the BME280 API, available from Bosch Sensortec, for readout and compensation. For details on memory map and interfaces, please consult chapters 5 and 6 respectively. After the uncompensated values for pressure, temperature and humidity `ut', `up' and `uh' have been read, the actual humidity, pressure and temperature needs to be calculated using the compensation parameters stored in the device. The procedure is elaborated in chapter 4.2. 4.1 Data register shadowing In normal mode, the timing of measurements is not necessarily synchronized to the readout by the user. This means that new measurement results may become available while the user is reading the results from the previous measurement. In this case, shadowing is performed in order to guarantee data consistency. Shadowing will only work if all data registers are read in a single burst read. Therefore, the user must use burst reads if he does not synchronize data readout with the measurement cycle. Using several independent read commands may result in inconsistent data. If a new measurement is finished and the data registers are still being read, the new measurement results are transferred into shadow data registers. The content of shadow registers is transferred into data registers as soon as the user ends the burst read, even if not all data registers were read. The end of the burst read is marked by the rising edge of CSB pin in SPI case or by the recognition of a stop condition in I2C case. After the end of the burst read, all user data registers are updated at once. 4.2 Output compensation The BME280 output consists of the ADC output values. However, each sensing element behaves differently. Therefore, the actual pressure and temperature must be calculated using a set of calibration parameters. In this chapter, the method to read out the trimming values will be given. The recommended calculation uses fixed point arithmetic and is given in chapter 4.2.3. In high-level languages like MatlabTM or LabVIEWTM, fixed-point code may not be well supported. In this case the floating-point code in appendix 8.1 can be used as an alternative. For 8-bit micro controllers, the variable size may be limited. In this case a simplified 32 bit integer code with reduced accuracy is given in appendix 8.2. 4.2.1 Computational requirements In the table below an overview is given for the number of clock cycles needed for compensation on a 32 bit Cortex-M3 micro controller with GCC optimization level -O2. This controller does not feature a floating point unit, thus all floating-point calculations are emulated. Floating point is only recommended for PC application, where an FPU is present and these calculations are performed drastically faster.

Each compensation word is a 16-bit signed or unsigned integer value stored in two's complement. As the memory is organized into 8-bit words, two words must always be combined in order to represent the compensation word. The 8-bit registers are named calib00...calib41 and are stored at memory addresses 0x88...0xA1 and 0xE1...0xE7. The corresponding compensation words are named dig_T# for temperature compensation related values, dig_P# for pressure related values and dig_H# for humidity related values.

If this is not wanted, the code below can be applied at the user's risk. Both pressure and temperature values are expected to be received in 20 bit format, positive, stored in a 32 bit signed integer. Humidity is expected to be received in 16 bit format, positive, stored in a 32 bit signed integer. The variable t_fine (signed 32 bit) carries a fine resolution temperature value over to the pressure and humidity compensation formula and could be implemented as a global variable. The data type "BME280_S32_t" should define a 32 bit signed integer variable type and can usually be defined as "long signed int". The data type "BME280_U32_t" should define a 32 bit unsigned integer variable type and can usually be defined as "long unsigned int". For best possible calculation accuracy in pressure, 64 bit integer support is needed. If this is not possible on your platform, please see appendix 8.2 for a 32 bit alternative. The data type "BME280_S64_t" should define a 64 bit signed integer variable type, which on most supporting platforms can be defined as "long long signed int".

Note: Specifications within this document are subject to change without notice. Final Datasheet BME280 Environmental sensor Page 30 6. Digital interfaces The BME280 supports the IC and SPI digital interfaces; it acts as a slave for both protocols. The IC interface supports the Standard, Fast and High Speed modes. The SPI interface supports both SPI mode `00' (CPOL = CPHA = `0') and mode `11' (CPOL = CPHA = `1') in 4wire and 3-wire configuration. The following transactions are supported: Single byte write multiple byte write (using pairs of register addresses and register data) single byte read multiple byte read (using a single register address which is auto-incremented) 6.1 Interface selection Interface selection is done automatically based on CSB (chip select) status. If CSB is connected to VDDIO, the IC interface is active. If CSB is pulled down, the SPI interface is activated. After CSB has been pulled down once (regardless of whether any clock cycle occurred), the IC interface is disabled until the next power-on-reset. This is done in order to avoid inadvertently decoding SPI traffic to another slave as IC data. Since the device startup is deferred until both VDD and VDDIO are established, there is no risk of incorrect protocol detection because of the power-up sequence used. However, if IC is to be used and CSB is not directly connected to VDDIO but is instead connected to a programmable pin, it must be ensured that this pin already outputs the VDDIO level during power-on-reset of the device. If this is not the case, the device will be locked in SPI mode and not respond to IC commands. 6.2 IC Interface The IC slave interface is compatible with Philips IC Specification version 2.1. For detailed timings, please review Table 33. All modes (standard, fast, high speed) are supported. SDA and SCL are not pure open-drain. Both pads contain ESD protection diodes to VDDIO and GND. As the devices does not perform clock stretching, the SCL structure is a high-Z input without drain capability.

The last bit is changeable by SDO value and can be changed during operation. Connecting SDO to GND results in slave address 1110110 (0x76); connection it to VDDIO results in slave address 1110111 (0x77), which is the same as BMP280's IC address. The SDO pin cannot be left floating; if left floating, the IC address will be undefined. The IC interface uses the following pins: SCK: serial clock (SCL) SDI: data (SDA) SDO: Slave address LSB (GND = `0', VDDIO = `1') CSB must be connected to VDDIO to select IC interface. SDI is bi-directional with open drain to GND: it must be externally connected to VDDIO via a pull up resistor. Refer to chapter 7 for connection instructions. The following abbreviations will be used in the IC protocol figures: S Start P Stop ACKS Acknowledge by slave ACKM Acknowledge by master NACKM Not acknowledge by master 6.2.1 IC write Writing is done by sending the slave address in write mode (RW = `0'), resulting in slave address 111011X0 (`X' is determined by state of SDO pin. Then the master sends pairs of register addresses and register data. The transaction is ended by a stop condition. This is depicted in Figure 9.

Then either a stop or a repeated start condition must be generated. After this the slave is addressed in read mode (RW = `1') at address 111011X1, after which the slave sends out data from auto-incremented register addresses until a NOACKM and stop condition occurs. This is depicted in Figure 10, where register 0xF6 and 0xF7 are read.

The automatic selection between mode `00' and `11' is determined by the value of SCK after the CSB falling edge. The SPI interface has two modes: 4-wire and 3-wire. The protocol is the same for both. The 3wire mode is selected by setting `1' to the register spi3w_en. The pad SDI is used as a data pad in 3-wire mode.

Note: Specifications within this document are subject to change without notice. Final Datasheet BME280 Environmental sensor Page 33 The SPI interface uses the following pins: CSB: chip select, active low SCK: serial clock SDI: serial data input; data input/output in 3-wire mode SDO: serial data output; hi-Z in 3-wire mode Refer to chapter 7 for connection instructions. CSB is active low and has an integrated pull-up resistor. Data on SDI is latched by the device at SCK rising edge and SDO is changed at SCK falling edge. Communication starts when CSB goes to low and stops when CSB goes to high; during these transitions on CSB, SCK must be stable. The SPI protocol is shown in Figure 11. For timing details, please review Table 34.

Example: address 0xF7 is accessed by using SPI register address 0x77. For write access, the byte 0x77 is transferred, for read access, the byte 0xF7 is transferred. 6.3.1 SPI write Writing is done by lowering CSB and sending pairs control bytes and register data. The control bytes consist of the SPI register address (= full register address without bit 7) and the write command (bit7 = RW = `0'). Several pairs can be written without raising CSB. The transaction is ended by a raising CSB. The SPI write protocol is depicted in Figure 12.

The control bytes consist of the SPI register address (= full register address without bit 7) and the read command (bit 7 = RW = `1'). After writing the control byte, data is sent out of the SDO pin (SDI in 3-wire mode); the register address is automatically incremented. The SPI read protocol is depicted in Figure 13.

Final Datasheet BME280 Environmental sensor Page 48 7.11 Mounting and assembly recommendations In order to achieve the specified performance for you design, the following recommendations and the "Handling, soldering & mounting instructions BME280" should be taken into consideration when mounting a pressure sensor on a printed-circuit board (PCB): The clearance above the metal lid shall be 0.1mm at minimum. For the device housing appropriate venting needs to be provided in case the ambient pressure shall be measured. Liquids shall not come into direct contact with the device. During operation the sensor chip is sensitive to light, which can influence the accuracy of the measurement (photo-current of silicon). The position of the vent hole minimizes the light exposure of the sensor chip. Nevertheless, Bosch Sensortec recommends avoiding the exposure of BME280 to strong light sources. Soldering may not be done using vapor phase processes since the sensor will be damaged by the liquids used in these processes. 7.12 Environmental safety 7.12.1 RoHS The BME280 sensor meets the requirements of the EC restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS) directive, see also: Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2011 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. 7.12.2 Halogen content The BME280 is halogen-free. For more details on the analysis results please contact your Bosch Sensortec representative. 7.12.3 Internal package structure Within the scope of Bosch Sensortec's ambition to improve its products and secure the mass product supply, Bosch Sensortec qualifies additional sources (e.g. 2nd source) for the package of the BME280. While Bosch Sensortec took care that all of the technical packages parameters are described above are 100% identical for all sources, there can be differences in the chemical content and the internal structural between the different package sources. However, as secured by the extensive product qualification process of Bosch Sensortec, this has no impact to the usage or to the quality of the BME280 product.

Appendix A: Alternative compensation formulas 8.1 Compensation formulas in double precision floating point Please note that it is strongly advised to use the API available from Bosch Sensortec to perform readout and compensation. If this is not wanted, the code below can be applied at the user's risk. Both pressure and temperature values are expected to be received in 20 bit format, positive, stored in a 32 bit signed integer. Humidity is expected to be received in 16 bit format, positive, stored in a 32 bit signed integer. The variable t_fine (signed 32 bit) carries a fine resolution temperature value over to the pressure compensation formula and could be implemented as a global variable. The data type "BME280_S32_t" should define a 32 bit signed integer variable type and could usually be defined as "long signed int". The revision of the code is rev. 1.1 (pressure and temperature) and rev. 1.0 (humidity). Compensating the measurement value with double precision gives the best possible accuracy but is only recommended for PC applications. // Returns temperature in DegC, double precision.

If this is not wanted, the code below can be applied at the user's risk. Both pressure and temperature values are expected to be received in 20 bit format, positive, stored in a 32 bit signed integer. The variable t_fine (signed 32 bit) carries a fine resolution temperature value over to the pressure compensation formula and could be implemented as a global variable. The data type "BME280_S32_t" should define a 32 bit signed integer variable type and can usually be defined as "long signed int". The data type "BME280_U32_t" should define a 32 bit unsigned integer variable type and can usually be defined as "long unsigned int". Compensating the pressure value with 32 bit integer has an accuracy of typically 1 Pa (1sigma). At high filter levels this adds a significant amount of noise to the output values and reduces their resolution. // Returns temperature in DegC, resolution is 0.01 DegC.

Appendix B: Measurement time and current calculation In this chapter, formulas are given to calculate measurement rate, filter bandwidth and current consumption in different settings. 9.1 Measurement time The active measurement time depends on the selected values for humidity, temperature and pressure oversampling and can be calculated in milliseconds using the formulas below. For example, using temperature oversampling x1, pressure oversampling x4 and no humidity measurement, the measurement time is: 9.2 Measurement rate in forced mode In forced mode, the measurement rate depends on the rate at which it is forced by the master. The highest possible frequency in Hz can be calculated as: If measurements are forced faster than they can be executed, the data rate saturates at the attainable data rate. For the example above with 11.5 ms measurement time, the typically achievable output data rate would be: 9.3 Measurement rate in normal mode The measurement rate in normal mode depends on the measurement time and the standby time and can be calculated in Hz using the following formula: The accuracy of tstandby is described in the specification parameter tstandby. For the example above with 11.5 ms measurement time, setting normal mode with a standby time of 62.5 ms would result in a data rate of: BST-BME280-DS001-10 | Revision 1.1 | May 2015 Bosch Sensortec (c) Bosch Sensortec GmbH reserves all rights even in the event of industrial property rights.

Note: Specifications within this document are subject to change without notice. Final Datasheet BME280 Environmental sensor Page 52 9.4 Response time using IIR filter When using the IIR filter, the response time of the sensor depends on the selected filter coefficient and the data rate used. It can be calculated using the following formula: For the example above with a data rate of 13.51 Hz, the user could select a filter coefficient of 8. According to Table 6, the number of samples needed to reach 75% of a step response using this filter setting is 11. The response time with filter is therefore: 9.5 Current consumption The current consumption depends on the selected oversampling settings, the measurement rate and the sensor mode, but not on the IIR filter setting. It can be calculated as: Note that the only difference between forced and normal mode current consumption is that the current for the inactive time is either IDDSL or IDDSB. For the example above, the current would be BST-BME280-DS001-10 | Revision 1.1 | May 2015 Bosch Sensortec (c) Bosch Sensortec GmbH reserves all rights even in the event of industrial property rights.
