In this application, the sensor is a precision load cell with a nominal load of 5 kg, or about 11 lbs, to weigh objects on an aluminum pan weighing approximately 150g, or approximately 5 oz. Because ...

A paper-printed circuit is dmonstrated. The research, published in the journal ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces , highlights the low cost with which the foldable printed circuits can be made.

Though sometimes dubbed a load-dump sensor, it does not detect dumped loads. The term load dump refers to special circuitry protecting the sensor from high-voltage spikes in the vehicle wiring ...
