39.1mm - Square Shaped Force Sensor

This is a Force sensitive resistor with a square, 1.75x1.5",sensing area.

• This FSR  will vary its resistance depending on how much pressure is being applied to the sensing area.
• The harder the force, the lower the resistance.
• When no pressure is being applied to the FSR its resistance will be larger than 1M.
• This FSR can sense applied force anywhere in the range of 100g-10kg.
• Two pins extend from the bottom of the sensor with 0.1" pitch making it bread board friendly.
• There is a peel-and-stick rubber backing on the other side of the sensing area to mount the FSR.
• Just Connect a resistor to form a voltage divider and measure the voltage at the junction to find the force applied.
• These sensors are simple to set up and great for sensing pressure, but they aren't incredibly accurate.
• Use them to sense if it's being squeezed, but you may not want to use it as a scale.
• Actuation Force: 0.1 Newtons Force Sensitivity Range: 0.1 - 10.02 Newtons Non-Actuated Resistance: 10M W Device Rise Time: <3 microseconds Temp Operating Range: 30 - +70 ºC 16MHz Clock Speed 32 KB Flash Memory Package Includes: 1 x 39.1mm - Square Shaped Force Sensor.
