Membrane Potentiometer

PTX1S

The PTX1S is a linear membrane potentiometer designed for precise position sensing. It provides continuous analog output corresponding to the position along its length. Its flexible and ultra-thin structure allows for seamless incorporation into applications such as touch controls and position tracking systems.
