SOUSHINE FSR406 long tail, 39.7*39.7, Force Sensing Shunt Resistor (50g~10Kg)

The SOUSHINE FSR406 long tail, 39.7*39.7, Force Sensing Shunt Resistor (50g~10Kg) is a single-zone Force Sensing Resistor optimized for use in human touch control of electronic devices such as automotive electronics, medical systems, and in industrial and robotics applications. FSRs are two-wire devices. They are robust polymer thick film (PTF) sensors that exhibit a decrease in resistance that corresponds inversely with increase in force applied to the surface of the sensor. It has a 39.6mm square active area and is available with one of four connection options.

1. Actuation force as low as 0.1N and sensitivity range to 10N
2. Easily customizable to a wide range of sizes
3. Highly repeatable force reading; as low as 2% of initial reading with repeatable actuation system
4. Cost effective
5. Ultra thin; 0.45 mm
6. Robust; up to 10 million actuations
7. TTL compatible and optically isolated input.
8. Simple and easy to integrate

---

1. Detect and qualify press - Sense whether a touch is accidental or intended by reading force
2. Use force for UI feedback - Detect more or less user force to make a more intuitive interface
3. Enhance tool safety - Differentiate a grip from a touch as a safety lock
4. Find centroid of force - Use multiple sensors to determine centroid of force
5. Detect presence, position, or motion - Of a person or patient in a bed, chair, or medical device
6. Detect liquid blockage - Detect tube or pump occlusion or blockage by measuring back pressure
7. Detect proper tube positioning
8. Many other force measurement applications
