Capacitive Soil Moisture Sensor v1.2

Description

Overview

• The capacitive soil moisture sensor detects soil moisture content by measuring the capacitance change caused by changes in a dielectric material. 
• The use of the capacitive soil sensor  is a better approach as compared to the resistive soil moisture sensors.
• It has onboard a voltage regulator that can switch between 3.3 and 5.5V DC making it compatible with most microcontrollers or digital circuits out there.

Specification

• Operating voltage: 3.3 – 5.5V DC
• Sensor type: Analog
• Interface: PH2.0-3P
