FSR Model 406 Short

The FSR 406 Short 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 Short is laid out in a square configuration with a 34 mm2 active area. Key Features: Dynamic sensing range spans from ∼0.2N to 20N Able to withstand millions of actuations Ultrathin form factor Customizable for a wide range of applications Cost effective and easy to integrate
