Product Overview
The SX-PFYADS0102 Series is a thin, flexible piezoelectric-piezoresistive composite sensor designed for force and press-actuation sensing applications. Its sensing element combines a mixed-carbon-paste piezoresistive layer with a piezoelectric film and silver-paste conductive traces, protected by a PET outer layer. As applied force increases, the sensor resistance decreases, enabling reliable force and touch detection. Its fast response, flexible laminated construction, long actuation life, and compatibility with rigid non-conductive surfaces make it suitable for force-sensing interfaces, press-button applications, and integrated touch-control systems.
