This is a small force sensitive resistor. It is such a
material whose resistance changes when a force or pressure is applied to
it. It has a 0.16" (4 mm) diameter active sensing area. This FSR from
Interlink Electronics 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 1MΩ, with full pressure applied the resistance will
be 2.5kΩ.
Two pins extend from the bottom of the sensor with 0.1" pitch making it
bread board friendly.
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.
