This compact module detects the very first drop of rain and reports the strength of the shower, making it ideal for smart gardens, automatic window controls, mini weather stations and more.\n View the step-by-step tutorial ›\nPin-out\n\n\nVCC (3 · 3 V) – connect to the 3 · 3 V pad on the micro:bit\n\nGND – common 0 V reference\n\nDO • Digital Output – goes HIGH when rain is detected (trigger level set by the onboard potentiometer)\n\nAO • Analogue Output – 0 – 3 · 3 V signal proportional to rainfall intensity\n\nHow it works\nThe removable top plate is etched with interleaved tracks. When raindrops bridge these tracks the module’s comparator activates, sending a HIGH on DO while AO delivers a rising analogue voltage you can read with pin1.read_analog().\nThe two-wire cable linking the main board to the sensor plate is clearly marked — the lead with the ⏚ symbol must be connected to GND.\n","vendor":"Little Bird","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":4246,"title":"Default Title","sku":"LB-24-RAIN","price":6.33,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":7,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
