Load Cell

Schematic symbol

Force sensor used in digital scales: its resistance changes very slightly when it bends under weight. It usually has four wires forming a bridge (excitation +/− and signal +/−), and the output is only millivolts, so it needs an amplifier and ADC such as the HX711 module.
