1. Introduction
This is an arduino compatible TDS sensor, used to measure the TDS value of water, the TDS value can reflect the purity of water, and can be applied to water quality detection in fields such as domestic water use, hydroponics, and other areas.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), also known as the total concentration of dissolved solids, indicates how many milligrams of dissolved solids are present in 1 liter of water.Generally, the higher the TDS value, the more dissolved substances the water contains, and the less clean the water is.Therefore, the size of the TDS value can be one of the criteria for reflecting the purity of water.
