Engineering inferenceThin force sensitive resistor fits on a gripper jaw or finger to sense contact force while grasping.
Engineering inferenceNo-load speed, rated performance and stall limits describe different operating points. A stall specification is not a continuous operating rating.

FSRs are for relative force (touch, squeeze) — not calibrated load measurement.
No-load, rated-load and stall figures retain their separate test conditions.
Stall torque and current are not continuous ratings. Check the duty cycle and starting load when choosing the driver and power supply.
Product operating conditions, chip ambient ratings, package case limits and junction maxima remain separate.
Reported product dimensions may exclude protruding components. Unknown height does not establish a complete clearance envelope.
Attached generated geometry is an approximate envelope. A generated outline does not establish an electrically verified PCB footprint.
