Piezo-resistive Force Sensors are sensing devices based on the principle that resistance changes with external pressure. Their core components consist of a force-sensitive resistor element, a substrate material, and signal processing circuitry. They are key devices for converting mechanical pressure signals into measurable electrical signals.

Their working principle stems from the piezoresistive effect or contact resistance variation of the material: when an external force acts on the sensor surface, the lattice structure of the internal force-sensitive resistor deforms, or the contact state between conductive particles changes, directly causing a regular increase or decrease in its resistance value. The accompanying signal processing circuitry captures this resistance change and converts it into standard electrical signals such as voltage and current, ultimately achieving accurate detection of pressure magnitude.

Piezo-resistive Force Sensors are characterized by their small size, fast response speed, and low cost. They can adapt to different pressure ranges and are widely used in consumer electronics, automotive electronics, medical, robotics, and other scenarios. They are fundamental components for force signal sensing in industrial automation and smart hardware.
