1121 - Voltage Divider$7.25

back to product menu

Product Description
The 1121 provides an interface to non-Phidgets resistance sensors such as: Force-Sensing Resistors (FSR), light sensors, thermistors (heat sensors), and bend sensors.

The Voltage Divider eliminates the need to connect a resistor to an analog input by putting a high precision potentiometer on the board to allow the adjustment of the 'fixed' resistor.

The interface to the variable resistance sensor is a convenient terminal block.

Product Features
• Provides an interface to non-Phidgets resistance sensors.
• Eliminates the need to connect a resistor to an analog input.
• Convenient terminal block.
• The sensor is Ratiometric.
