Description
FlexiForce A101 Sensor
Descriptions:
The A101 is our smallest sensor optimized for high volume
manufacturing and ideal for embedding into products. The 2-pin sensors are
currently our smallest standard sensor.
The sensors can measure up to 10 lbs. The
dynamic range of this mini force sensor can be modified by changing the drive
voltage and adjusting the resistance of the feedback resistor
Typical Performance
Linearity (Error): < ±3% of Full Scale (Line
drawn from 0 to 50% load)
Repeatability: < ±2.5% (Conditioned
Sensor, 80% of Full Force Applied)
Hysteresis: < 4.5 % of Full Scale
(Conditioned Sensor, 80% of Full Force Applied)
Drift: <5% / logarithmic time (Constant Load
of 25 lb (111 N))
Response Time: < 5 µsec (Time required for
the sensor to respond to an input force; Impact load - recorded on
Oscilloscope)
Operating Temperature: -40°C - 60°C (-40°F -
140°F)*
* Force reading change per degree of temperature change =
0.36%/ºC (±0.2%/ºF)
