Development of science and technology today make automatic control have important role. It gives us ease to get performance in dynamic system. Automatic control be able to less routine work that operator always do. Automatic control tools have many kinds. Microcontroller ATMega328P is a kind of automatic control. The function is control and record data then save it. Automatic pitcher irrigation system constructions consist on hardware and software. Hardware consist on water level sensor and soil moisture sensor series, microcontroller, stackable SD card shield, real time clock, relay, battery and solenoid valve. Software is a program for microcontroller that used C/C++ language. Each sensor will be calibrated before use. Daily high water level and soil moisture data was data obtained. The data was obtained each 5 minutes. Data in microcontroller was obtained by record data on memory that was set in microcontroller. Calibration results express that microcontroller capability in monitoring high water level and soil moisture has high accuracy. Determination Coefficient calibration equation from the sensor is 0.955 for high water level sensor and 0.887 for soil moisture sensor. Furthermore, set point for control high water level is 5 cm for bottom margin and 14 cm for top margin.
