Quick Overview
This DIYables DS18B20 temperature sensor set includes two waterproof sensors with stainless steel probes and two wiring adapter modules with built-in pull-up resistors. The adapter modules feature screw terminals for easy, solderless connection to microcontrollers, eliminating the need for breadboards or additional components.
Each DS18B20 sensor provides accurate digital temperature readings from -55°C to +125°C via the Dallas 1-Wire protocol. The waterproof stainless steel probe design enables reliable measurements in wet environments, aquariums, soil monitoring, and outdoor applications.
Compatible with Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, and any 3.3V or 5V microcontroller, these sensors work seamlessly with popular libraries like OneWire and DallasTemperature for quick integration into IoT and automation projects.
