5.0 Measurement Techniques and Algorithms
The Interlink Electronics FSLP can measure position and pressure. The connection to the
measuring microprocessor is very simple and requires only one external component. The
microprocessor will need two general purpose IO (GPIO) pins and two GPIO/analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) pins. The GPIOs should be able to go into high-impedance mode (>1MΩ) and
the ADCs should be able to measure from 0 to Vcc. The pinout for the standard FSLP and 10cm
FSLP are identical.
