Analog Capacitive Corrosion Resistant Soil Moisture Sensor - Free Cable - For Arduino

Overview:



- This soil moisture sensor measures soil mositure levels by capacitive sensing rather than resistive sensing like other sensors on the market.

- It is made of corrosion resistant material which gives it an excellent service life.

- Insert it in to the soil around your plants and impress your friends with real-time soil moisture data!

- This module includes an on-board voltage regulator which gives it an operating voltage range of 3.3 ~ 5.5V. It is perfect for low-voltage MCUs, both 3.3V and 5V.

- For compatibility with a Raspberry Pi it will need an ADC converter.

- This soil moisture sensor is compatible with our 3-pin "Gravity" interface, which can be directly connected to the Gravity I/O expansion shield.
