MiniSense 100 Piezo Vibration Sensor - Small Horizontal

This MiniSense 100 Piezo Vibration Sensor - Small Horizontal is a low-cost cantilever-type vibration sensor loaded by a mass to offer high sensitivity at low frequencies. Useful for detecting vibration and ‘tap’ inputs from a user. Small AC and large voltage (up to +/-90V) when the film moves back an forth. A simple resistor should get the voltage down to ADC levels. Can also be used for impact sensing or a flexible switch.

Features:

• Flexible PVDF Piezo Polymer Film
• Wide dynamic range
• Laminated for higher voltage output
• Breadboard friendly leads
• Active sensor area is shielded for improved RFI/EMI rejection
• High sensitivity at low frequencies

Application:

• Detect either continuous or impulsive vibration or impacts
