They are simple to use and low-cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFSR's are basically a resistor that changes their resistive value (in ohms Ω) depending on how much it's pressed. These sensors are fairly low-cost and easy to use but they're rarely accurate. They also vary some from sensor to sensor perhaps 10%. So basically when you use FSR's you should only expect to get ranges of response. While FSRs can detect weight, they're a bad choice for detecting exactly how many pounds of weight are on them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular model looks a lot like the common 10 Newton force version, but is less sensitive - which means it's great for stronger force measurements: up to 100 Newtons! This makes it better for when the pressure applied is stronger and you want the analogue measurement range to go higher.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFSRs are made of plastic and the connection tab is crimped on delicate material. The best way to connect to these is to simply plug them into a \u003ca href=\"\/nl\/collections\/solderless-breadboards\"\u003ebreadboard\u003c\/a\u003e or use a clamp-style connector like \u003ca href=\"\/nl\/search?q=alligator+clips+test\u0026amp;narrow_by=\u0026amp;sort_by=relevency\u0026amp;page=1\"\u003ealligator clips\u003c\/a\u003e, a female header, or a terminal block. It is possible to solder onto the tabs but you must be very fast because if your iron is not good quality or you dally even a few seconds, you will melt the plastic and ruin the FSR! Don't attempt to solder directly to your FSR unless you are absolutely sure you have the skills to do so.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a full tutorial with wiring diagrams, code examples and project ideas, please read the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.adafruit.com\/force-sensitive-resistor-fsr\"\u003eFSR tutorial page\u003c\/a\u003e!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DXvxdvjoDKg?si=ETu4PWQ-y0raNaN5\u0026amp;start=44\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 60.4mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 18.33mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness: 0.56mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.9g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForce sensitivity range: 100g～10,000g (1N～ 98N)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForce Resolution: Continuous (Analog)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStand-off \/ Open unloaded resistance: \u0026gt;20MΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForce repeatability (single part) 2%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForce repeatability (part to part) 10% within a single batch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResponse time: \u0026lt;1ms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLife cycle (without failure): \u0026gt; 5 Million\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature: -30°C to +85°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eResources\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.adafruit.com\/force-sensitive-resistor-fsr\"\u003eProduct Wiki\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"chrome-extension:\/\/efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj\/https:\/\/cdn-shop.adafruit.com\/product-files\/5475\/MF01A-A05.pdf\"\u003eDatasheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50847587860753,"sku":"ADA5475","price":4.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/6285\/6209\/files\/round-high-force-sensitive-resistor-fsr-1-100-newton-force-alpha-mf01a-n-221-a05-the-pi-hut-ada5475-40915551387843.jpg?v=1735215980","url":"https:\/\/abcd3032.myshopify.com\/nl\/products\/round-high-force-sensitive-resistor-fsr-1-100-newton-force-alpha-mf01a-n-221-a05","provider":"Tayyab Zak","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
