Soil Moisture Sensor

The Soil Moisture Sensor is a passive, analog or power part in the LabWired part catalog. Its catalog type is soil-moisture. It connects to the MCU over Analog (ADC). The catalog gives a supply range of 3.3–5 V. It has 4 pins. A registered peripheral model runs in the engine: the firmware talks to it over the real bus and gets device-accurate responses.

How to simulate the Soil Moisture Sensor in LabWired

  1. Open the Playground at app.labwired.com and place an MCU board.
  2. Add the Soil Moisture Sensor (catalog type soil-moisture).
  3. Connect VCC and GND to the supply and ground of the board. Use a supply inside the catalog range of 3.3–5 V.
  4. Connect DOUT to a free GPIO pin.
  5. Connect AOUT as your circuit needs.
  6. Run the firmware. It reads the output of the part with the ADC of the MCU.
