{"title":"RP-C18.3-LT Thin Film Pressure Sensor","handle":"rp-c18-3-lt-thin-film-pressure-sensor","url":"/products/rp-c18-3-lt-thin-film-pressure-sensor","description":"The RP-C18.3-LT is a circular flexible thin-film pressure sensor, 18.3mm in diameter, designed for highly sensitive detection of both static and dynamic force. When pressure is applied to the active area, resistance decreases proportionally — making it straightforward to interface with a microcontroller's ADC for pressure or force measurement.\n\nUltra-thin at 0.4mm, it's flexible enough for embedding in wearables, medical devices, footwear, and bed monitoring systems, while remaining durable for over one million actuation cycles.\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nActive Area Diameter – 18.3mm\n\nThickness – 0.4mm\n\nPressure Range – 20g to 6kg\n\nTrigger Force – 20g (initial resistance drops below 200kΩ)\n\nInitial Resistance – >10MΩ (unloaded)\n\nActivation Time – <10ms\n\nResponse Time – <10ms\n\nDynamic Pressure – Up to 10Hz frequency\n\nDrift – <5% at 2.5kg static load over 24h\n\nHysteresis – ±10% at 1000g\n\nOperating Temperature – −40°C to +85°C\n\nLifespan – >1 million actuations\n\nEMI/ESD – None generated\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nPressure switches and touch detection\nSmart footwear and wearable force sensing\nBed and chair occupancy monitoring systems\nMedical device pressure measurement\nRobotics gripper feedback and tactile sensing\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× RP-C18.3-LT Thin Film Pressure Sensor\n\n\nResources\n\nProduct Wiki & Documentation\n","vendor":"DFRobot","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":4893,"title":"Default Title","sku":"DF-SEN0295","price":11.66,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":75,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
