Pinout & Power Notes

The EZO Conductivity Circuit can be used with 3.3V or 5V systems. Use I2C when adding several EZO circuits on one controller, or use UART for a direct serial setup. For the most stable readings, use proper calibration solutions and pair the circuit with the correct conductivity probe for your water range.
