## Description

A simple breakout board for measuring moisture in soil and similar materials. The two large exposed pads act as probes — functioning as a variable resistor where higher moisture means better conductivity, lower resistance, and a higher signal output. This version includes a 3-pin screw terminal pre-soldered for easy wiring. Connect VCC and GND to any Arduino-compatible board and read the analogue SIG output to determine moisture level. The PCB features a gold ENIG finish for improved corrosion resistance in moist environments. Key Features Analogue Output – Signal level proportional to soil moisture content Screw Terminals – 3-pin terminal block pre-soldered for tool-free wiring ENIG Gold Finish – Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold for corrosion resistance Simple Interface – Just VCC, GND, and SIG — works with any analogue input Ideal For Automated plant watering systems Garden and greenhouse monitoring Soil science experiments Environmental data logging Resources Hookup Guide – Assembly, weatherproofing, and example project
