The soil moisture probe employs analog resistance to gauge the moisture content of the soil, making it a valuable assistant for plant care. It can inform you if your plants are thirsty and integrate seamlessly into automatic watering systems, gardens, greenhouses, and beyond.
The Soil Moisture Sensor and Soil Detector Module, designed for applications such as Soil Moisture Test, Soil Humidity Test, and Corrosion Resistance, is compatible with Arduino. The analog output (AO) port on the soil humidity sensor provides an analog value (voltage), allowing you to access real-time data through the analog-to-digital (AD) port of your single-chip microcomputer (MCU).
Adjusting the detection threshold is a breeze – simply rotate the blue potentiometer clockwise to increase or counter-clockwise to reduce the sensitivity. The on-board power and signal indicators ensure you can readily monitor the board's working status at a glance.
When the detected humidity reaches the threshold value, the soil moisture detector outputs a low-level signal from the digital output (DO) port. This versatile module is compatible with both Arduino and Raspberry Pi, providing a reliable and user-friendly solution for your soil monitoring needs.
