Circuit Documentation
Summary
This circuit integrates an ESP32C3 Supermini microcontroller with an RS485 transceiver module, an NPK Soil Sensor, a pushbutton, and a toggle switch. The circuit is designed to interface with the soil sensor using RS485 communication, facilitated by the ESP32C3 Supermini. The pushbutton and toggle switch are used for input, and a resistor is included for pull-up or pull-down purposes.
