Description & Details
Summary
- This design is with a capacitive measurement. Capacitive measurements use only one probe, don't have any exposed metal, and don't introduce any DC currents into your plants. We use the built in capacitive touch measurement system built into the ATSAMD10 chip, which will give you a reading ranging from about 200 (very dry) to 2000 (very wet).
- As a bonus, we also give you the ambient temperature from the internal temperature sensor on the microcontroller, it's not high precision, maybe good to + or - 2 degrees Celsius.
- To make it so you can use the sensor with just about any microcontroller, we have an I2C interface. Connect a 4-pin JST-PH cable (not included) to your microcontroller or single board computer to 3-5V power, Ground, I2C SDA and I2C SCL and then run Arduino or CircuitPython code to read the temperature and capacitive measurement.
- Please note: This is just the sensor, you'll also need a JST 4-PH cable (not included) to go along for plugging it in! You can use Seeed Grove cables (not included) and boards (not included) to connect - the Grove cable (not included) is a little different looking but will fit just fine.
