Generic Membrane Pressure Sensor Plate - Red Plate w/ 3-Pin Green Header

This is an accessory plate, not a complete sensor. It is designed to physically mount and provide electrical connection via its 3-pin header for a separate flexible membrane or FSR (Force-Sensing Resistor) pressure sensor element. You will need to attach your own sensing element to the plate.

The standard pinout for such a header used with FSRs or simple resistive sensors is typically: Pin 1 (e.g., VCC/signal), Pin 2 (signal/output), and Pin 3 (GND). You should verify the connection with your specific sensor's datasheet, as it may require a voltage divider circuit. The pins are spaced for standard 0.1" breadboard or Jumper wire compatibility.

It is designed as a Generic mounting platform for common round or square FSRs and thin membrane sensors. Compatibility depends on the physical size and mounting holes of your specific sensor element. The rigid plate provides a stable backing to ensure force is applied evenly across the active sensing area.

Connect the 3-pin header to your board using female-to-female Jumper wires. Typically, you would connect one pin to a voltage reference (e.g., 5V or 3.3V), one to an analog input pin on the Arduino, and one to ground. An external pull-down or voltage divider resistor is often required on the signal line to read the sensor's variable resistance as a voltage.
