Tinycontrol humidity/function sensor

The sensor is an open circuit with an operating amplifier. After placing the sensor’s probe in a humid ground, a voltage in the range 0V – 5V inversely proportional to the conductivity of the ground will appear on the analogue output A0. This means that in dry conditions there will be high voltage. Similarly, the sensor can be used as a flood signal – if the ground is flooded the voltage will drop significantly. The sensor also has a digital output D0. The potentiometer can be used to set the sensitivity. Both outputs can be used with Lan Controller or GSM Controller and Arduino boards.
