SKU: SF-SEN-24409 | Brand: SparkFun

This compact breakout board measures moisture in soil and similar materials using two large exposed pads as conductivity probes. As the soil gets wetter, conductivity between the pads increases, resistance drops, and ...

SKU: DF-SEN0475 | Brand: DFRobot

Measure hydrogen fluoride concentration with a factory-calibrated electrochemical probe that supports analogue, I2C and UART output modes. It is designed for quickly building an HF concentration detector for industria...

SKU: DF-SEN0469 | Brand: DFRobot

This calibrated gas sensor measures ammonia concentration in the environment using an electrochemical probe. It supports three output modes — analogue, I2C and UART — so it can slot into a wide range of microcontrolle...

SKU: DF-SEN0690 | Brand: DFRobot

Add a slim linear touch input to curved or space-constrained surfaces with this flexible ribbon-style potentiometer. At just 0.45mm thick, it can conform to wearables, curved dashboards, soft robotics and other builds...

SKU: SF-SEN-27312 | Brand: SparkFun

This 50mm MagnetoPot provides potentiometric position feedback without needing a traditional external wiper or actuator. An outside magnet guides the built-in magnetic element, allowing the sensor to report position t...

The Feather nRF52840 Sense takes the popular Feather nRF52840 Express and adds a suite of on-board environmental and motion sensors. It features Bluetooth Low Energy, native USB, CircuitPython and Arduino support, plu...

SKU: PI-COM1004 | Brand: Pimoroni

You'll find these rotary potentiometers in our Maker Essentials kit, but they're so useful we decided to offer them on their own! Pair them with something like our Explorer HAT Pro or Explorer pHAT to rea...

SKU: PI-PSA001 | Brand: Pimoroni

The Pulse Sensor Amped is a plug-and-play heart-rate sensor for Arduino. It detects pulse by measuring changes in reflected light as blood pumps through your tissues, providing a real-time analogue signal that fluctua...

SKU: PL-1696 | Brand: Pololu

This force-sensing resistor (FSR) from Interlink Electronics is a passive component that exhibits a decrease in resistance when there is an increase in the force applied to the 0.58″-diameter (1.5 cm) active area...

SKU: PL-2458 | Brand: Pololu

The QTR-1A reflectance sensor carries a single infrared LED and phototransistor pair in an inexpensive, tiny 0.5" x 0.3" module that can be mounted almost anywhere and is great for edge detection and line fo...

SKU: PL-2453 | Brand: Pololu

A compact carrier board for the Allegro ACS711EX Hall effect-based linear current sensor with overcurrent fault output. It measures bidirectional current up to ±31 A with a proportional analogue voltage output centred...

SKU: AF-372 | Brand: Adafruit

An epoxy-coated precision NTC thermistor with a 10kΩ resistance at 25°C and ±1% accuracy. The resistance decreases as temperature rises and increases as it cools, making it straightforward to measure temperature with ...
