DESCRIPTION
The FSA Series are piezoresistive-based force sensors offering a ratiometric analog or digital output for reading force over the specified full scale force span and temperature range. They are fully calibrated and temperature compensated for sensor offset, sensitivity, temperature effects, and nonlinearity using an on-board Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). Direct mechanical coupling allows for easy interface with the sensor, coupling with tubing, membrane or a plunger, providing repeatable performance and a reliable mechanical interface to the application. The package also provides excellent corrosion resistance and isolation to external package stress. All products are designed and manufactured according to ISO 9001 standards.
VALUE TO CUSTOMERS
The FSA Series are designed to meet the customers' need for a compensated, amplified force sensor that provides analog and digital outputs, a variety of force sensing ranges, and enhanced durability and accuracy. Their flexible design provides multiple standard configurations over a wide operating temperature range.

1 Sensors are either 3.3 Vdc or 5.0 Vdc based on the catalog listing selected.
2 Ratiometricity of the sensor (the ability of the device output to scale to the supply voltage) is achieved within the specified operating voltage.
3 The sensor is not reverse polarity protected. Incorrect application of supply voltage or ground to the wrong pin may cause electrical failure.
4 Operating temperature range: The temperature range over which the sensor will produce an output proportional to force.
5 Compensated temperature range: The temperature range over which the sensor will produce an output proportional to force within the specified performance limits.
6 Accuracy: The maximum deviation in output from a Best Fit Straight Line (BFSL) fitted to the output measured over the force range at 25°C [77°F]. Includes all errors due to force non-linearity, force hysteresis, and non-repeatability.
7 Full Scale Span (FSS): The algebraic difference between the output voltage at full scale force and the output at zero force.
8 Total Error Band (TEB): Combined error from calibration, accuracy and temperature effects over the compensated temperature range at 5.0 V from 15 %FSS to 95 %FSS.
