Soil Moisture Sensor - ADIY
Soil Moisture Sensor - ADIY
The Soil Moisture Sensor – ADIY is a practical sensor used to measure the moisture content present in soil. It works on the principle of electrical conductivity, where the resistance between the probe electrodes changes according to the water content in the soil. Higher moisture results in lower resistance, while dry soil shows higher resistance. The module is suitable for real-time soil monitoring and is commonly used in agriculture, gardening, and automated irrigation systems. It easily interfaces with Arduino, ESP8266, ESP32, and other microcontroller platforms.
Technical Specifications:
- Operating Voltage: 3.3 V – 5 V DC
- Output Type: Analog output (AO) and Digital output (DO)
- Comparator IC: LM393
- Sensitivity Adjustment: On-board potentiometer
- Interface Pins: VCC, GND, AO, DO
- Detection Method: Soil conductivity-based moisture sensing
- Probe Type: Dual-prong corrosion-prone metal probes
- Connector: 2-pin sensor connector with jumper wires
- Compatible Controllers: Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi (with ADC), STM32
Features:
- Measures soil moisture level effectively
- Provides both analog and digital outputs
- Adjustable sensitivity using on-board potentiometer
- Easy to connect and use with microcontrollers
- Low power consumption
- Compact and lightweight design
- Ideal for DIY, educational, and prototype projects
Applications:
- Automatic irrigation and watering systems
- Smart agriculture and farming projects
- Plant monitoring systems
- Garden and greenhouse automation
- Soil moisture data logging
- IoT-based environmental monitoring
- Educational electronics and Arduino projects
