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. The design of the sensor has no visible electrodes, making it resistant to corrosion and the readings over time do not lose precision. The sensor has such protection as: water resistance and resistance to atmospheric conditions. The module can be connected with the Arduino boards and the other boards equipped with the A/D converter.
