The Maker Soil Moisture Sensor offers a reliable and easy-to-use solution for measuring soil moisture levels using capacitive sensing. It features analog output, where higher moisture levels result in lower output voltage. With a Grove port, LED indicators, and a corrosion-resistant double-sided probe, this sensor is perfect for beginners and experts alike. Ideal for applications like smart gardens and automatic plant watering systems, it even includes a disable pin for power-saving functionality.

Features:

  1. Capacitive Sensing: Measures moisture levels with a corrosion-resistant, double-sided probe.
  2. Analog Output: Produces lower voltage at higher moisture levels for precise monitoring.
  3. LED Indicators: Displays dry, moist, and wet conditions for quick assessment.
  4. Power-Saving Mode: Includes a disable pin to turn off the sensor when not in use.
  5. Wide Voltage Range: Operates between 2.5V and 7.0V for flexible integration.

Package Includes:

1 x Maker Soil Moisture Sensor

1 x 50cm Grove-to-Grove cable

Setup Guide

1
Identify the pins
Locate VCC (power), GND (ground), and data pins (SDA/SCL for I2C, MOSI/MISO for SPI, or TX/RX for UART). Refer to the pinout diagram on the product page.
2
Wire to your microcontroller
Connect VCC to 3.3V or 5V (check the module spec), GND to GND, and data pins to the appropriate GPIO pins on your Arduino or Raspberry Pi.
3
Install libraries
In Arduino IDE, go to Sketch → Include Library → Manage Libraries and search for the sensor library. Install the recommended version.
4
Upload example sketch
Open File → Examples → [library name] → Basic Example. Upload to your board and open Serial Monitor to view output.
5
Calibrate if needed
Some sensors (temperature, humidity, distance) may need a short warm-up period or calibration. Run the calibration sketch if provided.
