 | | Touch Sensor resistance versus button displacement

Here is a chart showing the variation of contact resistance of several touch sensors while pressing button very progressively. (URL) There are huge differences between various sensor Lightly pressed touch sensors have contact resistance in the 2 to (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)

Thanks to Dick Swan's help I have managed to get BricxCC downloading firmware in fast mode with the USB tower. All it took was using long enough timeout values (I'm currently using the tower default timeout settings when downloading firmware), (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Yes, it would be nice, plus the two or three unused sensors... I'm happy enough with the LDCC firmware as a DCC encoder (pleased as punch, really). But it "would be nice" if it were implemented as a library or patch to an existing brick OS (...)

(...) I have tried this method too, and as you say in your text, it is plagued by the rubber contacts whose value goes down as more pressure is applied to the switch. I measured resistance of several touch sensors while applying a very progressive (...) (21 years ago, 11-Sep-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
