Zd10-100 Datasheet [updated] Here

The ZD10-100 is a highly sensitive, flexible thin-film pressure sensor (also known as a Force Sensing Resistor or FSR). It is designed to detect small pressure changes or bending movements, commonly used in smart home devices, medical electronics, and robotics. 1. Key Technical Specifications

The ZD10-100 has the following features: zd10-100 datasheet

The sensor operates on the principle of resistance-type sensing. When the sensor is "at rest" (no pressure), its initial resistance is very high (often >10MΩ). As pressure is applied to the sensing area, the internal conductive layers make better contact, causing the resistance to drop significantly. This change can be easily read by a microcontroller like an Arduino or ESP32 using a simple voltage divider circuit.  Practical Applications  The ZD10-100 is a highly sensitive, flexible thin-film

Voltage Adjustability

Many users miss the "ADJ" potentiometer. The datasheet specifies an output voltage trim range of ±10% (10.8V to 13.2V for the 12V model). This is crucial if you need to compensate for long cable losses or drive a 12V fan at lower speed. Key Technical Specifications The ZD10-100 has the following

For the best results, use a small rubber "bumper" or "puck" on the sensing area. This ensures force is distributed evenly across the 10mm active zone. Hysteresis:

1. Absolute Maximum Ratings

These are stress limits. Exceeding these values can destroy the component.
