Taiwan Alpha Membrane Pressure sensor - 18mm Round

This sensor is capable of measuring pressure by means of the membranes processed in the sensor.  
The resistance of the sensor changes based on the pressure on the membrane.
With a simple voltage divider you can easily read the sensor on an analog input pin on your Arduino.

Specifications:

• Brand: Taiwan Alpha
• Type:  MF01-N-221-A01
• Active area: approximately 14.7mm (diameter, round)
• Pressure range: 30 to 1000g (0.3 to 9.8N)

Note: The pins of this sensor are difficult to solder because of the plastic that can melt. We recommend soldering only the sensor if you have enough soldering experience.
