Abstract
A clothing drying machine, which terminates drying operation when a dryness level of the drying machine reaches a target level desired by a user, and a method for sensing the dryness level using the same. The method includes counting the frequency of a case, in which voltage sensed by an electrode sensor, in which the voltage varies according to moisture content of clothing, is more than a predetermined reference voltage; and terminating drying operation when the frequency counted by the counting unit for a predetermined reference time is in the range of one of predetermined dryness levels.
