Hey folks
In this tutorial, we will learn how to interface LM393 module(Soil Moisture Sensor)with NodeMcu(ESP8266). LM393 is a simple water sensor can be used to detect soil moisture when the soil moisture deficit module plant waterer device, so that the plants in our garden without people to manage; Adjustable sensitivity adjust the digital potentiometer (shown in blue) Operating Voltage 3.3V-5V; Module Dual Output mode, a simple.
Components Required:
Here Pin A0 of the moisture sensor module connects to pin A0 on the ESP8266
The GND pin on the moisture sensor module connects to a GND pin on the ESP8266
The VCC pin on the moisture sensor module connects to a 3v3 pin on the ESP8266
D0 pin remain disconnected
