Description:

The subtle nuances of vibration with our compact and sensitive Piezo Vibration Sensor. Designed for horizontal mounting, this low-cost sensor utilizes a cantilever beam loaded with a mass to achieve exceptional sensitivity at lower frequencies.

The Minisense 100 from Measurement Specialties 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.

A small AC and large voltage (up to +/-90V) is created 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.
