Summary of the Circuit

This circuit is designed to interface an Arduino UNO with a variety of components including a 0.96" OLED display, a 1-Channel Relay, a 2.1mm Barrel Jack with Terminal Block, a Plastic Solenoid Valve, a Load Cell, and an HX711 Bridge Sensor Interface. The Arduino UNO acts as the central processing unit, controlling the relay, reading data from the load cell through the HX711, and displaying information on the OLED. The relay is used to control the solenoid valve, and the barrel jack provides power to the circuit.
