Easy-to-use soil moisture sensor with Qwiic connector and ENIG coating. Perfect for gardening and smart irrigation systems.
The SparkFun Qwiic Soil Moisture Sensor is a simple yet effective solution for measuring moisture levels in soil and similar materials. Its two exposed pads act as probes, functioning as a variable resistor where the resistance decreases as the moisture content increases.
This sensor board features an Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG) coating, significantly extending its lifespan by preventing corrosion. The Qwiic connector ensures quick and easy installation, eliminating the need for soldering or complex wiring.
To use, simply connect the VCC and GND pins to an Arduino or compatible board and monitor the SIG output for moisture readings. Compact and reliable, this sensor is perfect for gardening, agriculture, or any project requiring soil moisture monitoring.
