Moisture sensor: common questions

How big is the Moisture sensor PCB?

The Moisture sensor measures 40.8 × 38.5 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Moisture sensor?

13 components, from 8 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Moisture sensor design files?

From the rct4/Autonomous-Soil-Monitoring-Rover repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Moisture sensor design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with rct4. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
