AVT5132 UK

The device measures the contact force expressed in newtons. A relatively cheap, foil pressure sensor is used as a sensor. Its principle of operation is similar to the sensors used in foil keyboards - the difference is only that instead of switching, the resistance of the button decreases depending on the value of the applied force. So, to read the pressure value, you only need to measure the resistance. Unfortunately, its changes in the force function are not linear, which is included in the program of the PSoC microcontroller being the 'heart' of the meter.

The device is particularly recommended in places and situations where it is worth knowing how much pressure is exerted
