Description
The sensor to determine the moisture level of the soil. It is powered with the voltage from 3.1 V to 5 V. The output is the analog voltage which increases its value along with the increasing moisture content which makes it compatible with most commissioning modules, for example,Arduino. The device can be used, for example, for measuring the moisture content of the soil in the pot.
The product is compatible with Arduino The manufacturer has prepared a user guide along witha sample program for Arduino and STM32. |
Sensor maintenance
The sensor has an analog output that should be connected to the pin of the A/D converter (analog input inArduino). This will allow you to measure the proportional voltage signal and at the same time to determine the level of soil moisture.
