The Wheatstone bridge is a ubiquitous circuit configuration that is useful in detecting small changes in resistance.

Finally, to solve his pet peeve of setting up and using the stock Z-probe, [Bruno] turned the entire print bed into a strain-gauge sensor. This took some doing, which the blog post details nicely ...

In module 2 you will learn how to specify and use various types of force and strain sensors for an embedded circuit. First, you will learn about how strain gauges use the piezoresistive effect and ...

The stock crank arms are carefully fitted with two pairs of tiny strain gauges ... with one gauge in each pair mounted perpendicular to the force on the crank to serve as a static reference.

Charcroft Electronics, a specialist distributor and manufacturer of electronic components, has completed the acquisition of ...
