====== HX711 digital load-cell sensor ======

===== Partlist =====

^ Count ^ Description ^ Value                  ^
| 1      | PCB    | all SMD-parts mounted already |
| 1      | pin-header  | 10-pin |

===== Application =====

Connect the load cell with the sensor-pcb as shown in the diagram. After this step, connect the load cell to your Gscheiduino (or any other Arduino-compatible PCB):

===== Democode =====

A simple example program can be found here:

<code c>
#include "HX711.h"

// HX711.DOUT  - pin #A1
// HX711.PD_SCK - pin #A0

HX711 scale(A1, A0);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(38400);
  Serial.println("HX711 Demo");

  scale.set_scale(-723960); // this is for scaling, here for 3kg loadcell
  scale.tare(); // zeroing
  
}

void loop() {
  Serial.println(scale.get_units(10), 2); // mean value from 10 measurements, 2 digits
  delay(100);
}
