SIngle Pressure
Sensor
DATASHEET
The single pressure sensor gives you an analog read that maps to force on
the sensor. The more you press, the lower the resistance goes, perfect for onbody pressure related sensing like ribcage expansion for breathing. This
sensor is small but mighty, making it convenient for small surface area
applications.

mini Pressure
Matrix
DATASHEET
If you are looking to map pressure over a 1.25" area, this is the one. Our 3x3
mini pressure matrix has 6 leads, allowing you to map which point you are at
in the 3x3 matrix. Each area has an analog readout that varies depending on
the weight of the item on the pressure sensor. Generally, sensor values will
read from 500Kohms to 100ohms depending on the force put onto the
sensor.

The S-bus is perfect for when you need to
make an unusual geometry from our LEL buses.
You can use two together to make a big C
curve to go around an elbow, or just use one to
route wiring where you need it for soft
robotics or for an installation.
The C-Curve bus is perfect for connecting
two .15" buses together at a wide angle. Try
using this part for creating conductive lines
over shoulders or over large surface areas.
The straight 4-wire bus has 4 leads that are
each .15" wide. Each "wire" is super low
resistance, giving you fast data speed and
solid wattage without heating up. Each bus is
twistable, drapable and bendable for all of
your soft circuit needs and this bus can be
easily soldered to the S-curve bus or obtuse
angle bus to make different shapes of traces
for wearable tech applications.
This serpentine has .15" traces making it
compatible with our S-curve and obtuse bus
samples. Use this bus when you need a little
more stretch as it has up to 10% elongation.
We suggest this bus for our pressure
sensors

MeGA Pressure
Matrix
DATASHEET
Like the mini pressure sensor... but bigger! Our 3x3 mega pressure matrix has
6 leads, allowing you to map which point you are at in the 3x3 matrix and get
a pressure mapping over a surface. Each area has an analog readout that
varies depending on the weight of the item on the pressure sensor.
Generally, sensor values will read from 500Kohms to 100ohms depending on
the force put onto the sensor.

5V - 7.2V Heater
DATASHEET
The 5V - 7.2V heater is made to work with an off the shelf, 5V battery pack or
two lipo batteries in series (just make sure both can output 2A safely). The
heater will get hotter depending on the voltage you use. The heater warms
up quickly with tangible heat within 60 seconds and top heat after 2 min.
Use this component for heating wearables, or for thermochromic effects.
