The FSS Series Force Sensor provides precise, reliable force sensing performance in a compact, commercial-grade package at a cost effective price. The sensor features a proven sensing technology that uses a specialized piezoresistive, micromachined silicon sensing element. The low power, unamplified, uncompensated Wheatstone bridge circuit design provides inherently stable mV outputs over the force range.
Force sensors operate on the principle that the resistance of silicon-implanted piezoresistors will increase when the resistors flex under any applied force. The sensor concentrates force from the application, through the stainless steel ball, directly to the silicon-sensing element. The amount of resistance changes in proportion to the amount of force being applied. This change in circuit resistance results in a corresponding mV output level change.

1.The maximum specified force which may be applied to the sensor without causing apermanent changein the output characteristics
2.Span is the algebraic difference between the output voltage at full-scale force and the output at zero force.Span is ratiometric to the supply voltage. 3.Linearity(BSL),the deviation of measured output at constant temperature(25°ºC)from "Best Straight Line"determined by three points,offset pressure,full-scale pressure and half full-scale pressure.
4.Eror band of the offset voltage,span or bridge impedance in the specified temperature range,relative to the 25°ºC reading.
5.Repeatability,the deviation in output readings for successive application of any given input force (all other conditions remaining constant.Hysteresis,the error defined by the deviation in output signal obtained when a specific force point is approached first with increasing force,then with decreasing force or vice versa(all other conditions remaining constant).
