Important Application Information Typically, you should mount the sensor onto an even, smooth, and hard support surface, for example a plastic, glass or metal plate. Always place the actuator perpendicular to the sensor surface in the centre of the active area. You should avoid offset mounting. Ensure that the actuator is smaller than the active area of the sensor.

High Dynamic Force Sensing Resistor (HD-FSR) HD 001 HD 002 22 CIS
Key Features IEE’s high-dynamic FSR sensors are the newest generation of cells, and have an improved FSR cell performance. Several sensor cells can be combined in a number of variants. This technology can be ideally adapted for a range of uses where high sensor dynamic over a wide pressure range (from 100 mbar up to 7 bar) is required. The staggering of individual cell segments allows us to create a homogeneous repeatable cell response along the axis of staggering.
Sensor Configurations High Dynamic Force Sensing Resistor (HD-FSR) Depending on the cell dimension, HDFSR sensors are available in different Sensor Type Detection Area Dimension HD 001 rectangular, 18.1 x 14.75 mm HD 002 rectangular, 31 x 14.75 mm Pressure Load Typical Resistance Value Typical Value in Voltage Divider 500 mbar 2,000 mbar 0.56 V < Vfsr < 1.13 V 500 mbar 0.26 V < Vfsr < 0.53 V 2,000 mbar 0.67 V < Vfsr < 1.

Sensor Characteristics Sensor Description Sensor type Pressure Sensitive High Dynamic Single Sensor Typical applications/devices Dynamic user interface devices and high-dynamic pressure sensors for in-shoe measurements Number of active areas/cells 1 Dimensions and available connectors See layout drawings on the following pages Manufacturing Tolerances According to DIN 7151 IT 14 Thickness Nominal value +/- 12 % Total manufacturing tolerance +/- 0.
Important Application Information Typically, you should mount the sensor onto an even and smooth support surface, for example a plastic, glass or metal plate. Unlike the standard cells, the HD-FSR can also be mounted on slightly bent rubber or foam layers. To avoid mechanical pre-load and false signals, do not bend the sensor in the active area to a radius of < 120 mm. To avoid broken conductor lines, do not bend the connection tail to a radius of < 5 mm. All sensors feature an air vent.
