Description:
This Soil Moisture Sensor is a simple breakout for measuring the moisture in soil and
similar materials. The two large exposed pads function as probes for the sensor,
together acting as a variable resistor. The more water that is in the soil means the
better the conductivity between the pads will be and will result in a lower resistance,
and a higher SIG out.
