Description
- Maker Soil Moisture Sensor (Capacitive)
- Offers double-sided probe
- Measures soil moisture by capacitive sensing
- Capacitive sensing probe
- Operating Voltage: 2.5 – 7.0 V
- Grove port: Included
The Maker Soil Moisture Sensor (Capacitive) measures soil moisture by capacitive sensing, where the presence of water in the soil will increase the probe capacitance.
The output of the sensor is analog output, higher moisture levels will produce a lower output voltage. Being part of the Maker Series, the sensor is equipped with many features to further simplify digital making for beginners and experts alike.
