If you have never worked with solder jumpers and PCB traces before or would like a quick refresher, check out our How to Work with Solder Jumpers and PCB Traces tutorial for detailed instructions and tips. These two sensors are great additions to an outdoor Weather Carrier Board setup to get a more complete view of weather in the area. The two RJ11 connectors allow you to connect the wind and rain sensors included with our Weather Meters Kit to monitor wind speed, wind direction and rainfall. If you are looking for some inspiration for an automated watering project, check out our Product Showcase Video and the Soil Moisture Sensor Hookup Guide. Power ( 3.3V) for the sensor is provided by G0 (MicroMod pad 40) allowing you to turn it on and off easily (continuous power is not recommended for the soil moisture sensor) and the Signal output is tied to A0 (MicroMod pad 34). The sensor takes advantage of a simple concept of moist soil being more conductive than dry soil so as more water is added to the soil, the resistance of the circuit drops and the SIG output increases. The Soil Moisture Sensor has two large coated pads that act as prongs for what is essentially a large variable resistor. microSD Slot - Insert a microSD card formatted to FAT32 here to log your weather data.RTC Backup Battery & Charge Circuit - 1mAh backup battery for the Real-Time Clocks on MicroMod Processors that have a built-in RTC.Boot/Reset Buttons - Push buttons to enter boot mode on processors and to reset your MicroMod circuit.Qwiic Connector - The standard Qwiic connector so you can add other Qwiic devices to your MicroMod system.3.3V Regulator - Provides a regulated 3.3V and sources up to 1A.USB-C Connector - Connect to your computer to program your processor and also can provide power to your MicroMod system.

M.2 MicroMod Connector - This special keyed M.2 connector lets you install your MicroMod Processor of choice on your Weather Carrier Board.The photo and list below outline some of the components you can expect on the Weather Carrier Board and most other SparkFun MicroMod Carrier Boards. Most SparkFun MicroMod Carrier Boards will have some common components and all MicroMod Carrier Boards will have the keyed M.2 MicroMod Connector to plug your processor into. In this section we'll cover the various hardware, sensors and adjustable solder jumpers on the MicroMod Weather Carrier Board, the external sensor connections and the pinout of the Carrier Board for a detailed look at how it connects to your chosen MicroMod Processor.
