Force Sensor FSR 402, 14.7mm Circular Force Sensitive Resistor (Pressure Sensor)

The FSR 402 Force Sensor is a thin, circular force-sensitive resistor designed to detect applied force or pressure. Its resistance decreases as force is applied to the sensing area, allowing electronic circuits and microcontrollers to measure changes in pressure. With a compact 14.7mm circular sensing area, it is suitable for interactive electronics, robotics, touch-sensitive controls, and force measurement prototypes.
