Product description
SparkFun Load Cell Amplifier - HX711 is a load cell amplifier for load cells that makes it possible to measure weight with a microcontroller. The board acts as a bridge between the load cell and the microcontroller and uses the HX711 IC with a two-wire interface for clock and data. It is intended for standard load cells with a four-wire Wheatstone bridge and features clearly labeled connections for the load cell signal and supply wires.
