1134_0 Phidget Switchable Voltage Divider
The 1134 - Switchable Voltage Divider is an adjustable resistor used to create a voltage divider with a variable resistance sensor.
The 1134's resistance can be tuned to be close to the resistive sensor by flipping the dip switches on the board. The individual resistance values available (in Ohms) are 249, 820, 2.61K, 8.45K, 27.4K, 91K, 300K and 1M. It is possible to have multiple switches flipped which puts the corresponding resistors in parallel.
The 1134 Provides an interface to non-Phidgets variable resistance sensors such as: Force Sensing Resistors (FSR), light sensors, thermistors (heat sensors), and bend sensors.
