README
README.mdE-Skin
A bioinspired electronic skin system for robotic applications, combining FSR (force-sensing resistor) arrays and accelerometer arrays.
Overview
The electronic board uses two multiplexers and two 16-channel ADCs to read the FSRs. The multiplexers select the row or column of the FSR array, while the ADCs read the sensor values. A Teensy 4.1 controls the multiplexers and ADCs and sends data to the computer via USB or Ethernet.
Operation modes:
- Single mode: Connect one FSR array with up to 32x32 sensors
- Dual mode: Connect two FSR arrays with up to 16x16 sensors each
Sampling rate: ~400 KHz/channel (1562.5 Hz for a 16x16 array)

Questions
How big is the LIS3DH array PCB?
It measures 113 × 113 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.08 mm thick.
What parts does the LIS3DH array use?
146 parts, built around the LIS3DH, SN74LVC1G32DCKR(AT), HC-FPC-05-09-6RLTAG and AFC01-S22FCA-00. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the LIS3DH array KiCad files?
From the Aightech/e-skin repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is models/LIS3DH_array/LIS3DH_array.kicad_pcb and its schematic models/FSRray/FSRray.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the LIS3DH array design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
