Sensors are either 3.3 Vdc or 5.0 Vdc based on the catalog listing selected.

2

Ratiometricity of the sensor (the ability of the device output to scale to the supply voltage) is achieved within the specified operating voltage.

3

The sensor is not reverse polarity protected. Incorrect application of supply voltage or ground to the wrong pin may cause electrical failure.

4

Operating temperature range: The temperature range over which the sensor will produce an output proportional to force. 

5

Compensated temperature range: The temperature range over which the sensor will produce an output proportional to force within the specified 

performance limits.

6

Accuracy: The maximum deviation in output from a Best Fit Straight Line (BFSL) fitted to the output measured over the force range at 25°C [77°F]. 

Includes all errors due to force non-linearity, force hysteresis, and non-repeatability.

7

Full Scale Span (FSS): The algebraic difference between the output voltage at full scale force and the output at zero force.

8

Total Error Band (TEB): Combined error from calibration, accuracy and temperature effects over the compensated temperature range at 5.0 V from 

15 %FSS to 95 %FSS.

9

Long-term stability after 1000 hr of operation at 25°C [77°F].
