50kg Load Cell Weight Measurement with HX711

This project measures weight using a 50kg load cell connected to an Arduino Uno via an HX711 amplifier module. The sketch tares the scale at startup and repeatedly outputs the measured weight to the Serial Monitor. You can calibrate the reading by adjusting the calibration factor with a known weight.

50kg Load Cell with HX711 Amplifier

This project reads weight values from a single 50kg half-bridge load cell using an HX711 amplifier and two 1kΩ resistors to complete the Wheatstone bridge. Connect the circuit, upload the sketch, and open the Serial Monitor at 115200 baud to view real-time weight sensor readings.
