The A301 is optimized for high volume manufacturing and ideal for embedding into products and applications.
The dynamic range of this small force sensor can be modified by changing the drive voltage and adjusting the resistance of the feedback resistor.
Applications
Testing and Measurement Equipment
Embedded Electronics
OEM Development Kit
Consumer Electronics
Multimeter
How to Adjust the Force Range:
In order to measure higher forces, apply a lower drive voltage (-0.5 V, -0.25 V, etc.) and reduce the resistance of the feedback resistor (1kΩ min.) To measure lower forces, apply a higher drive voltage and increase the resistance of the feedback resistor. For an alternative to the recommended circuit, see the Related Electronics tab.
Typical Performance
Linearity (Error):  < ±3% of Full Scale (Line drawn from 0 to 50% load)
