The SOUSHINE FSR400 is a force-sensing resistor based on polymer thick film (PTF) technology. When force is applied to its 5.6mm active area, the conductive particles within the polymer film move closer together, causing a predictable decrease in electrical resistance. This analog resistance change can be easily measured using a simple voltage divider circuit connected to an ADC input on a microcontroller.
Designed for durability, the sensor’s robust construction withstands millions of actuations, making it suitable for long-term use in interactive controls. Its ultra-thin profile and flexible tail allow for integration into space-constrained applications where discrete force detection is required, from consumer electronics to industrial control panels.
