FSR Model 406

The FSR 406 is a single-zone Force Sensing Resistor® optimized to use human touch to control devices for use in automotive electronics, medical systems, and industrial and robotics applications, among many others. FSRs are two-wire, robust polymer thick film (PTF) sensors that exhibit a decrease in resistance with increase in force applied to the surface of the sensor. The FSR 406 is laid out in a square configuration with a 34 mm2 active area and is available in four connection options. Highlights: 34 mm2 active area 83 mm length Sensing range from 0.2N to 20N Ultrathin form factor Easily customizable
