ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for electrically stable electrodes and sensors having a flexible base or substrate. One or more flexible and pressure sensitive resistors having a high resistance and a high temperature coefficient of resistivity are printed on a first surface of the flexible base, and a second set of one or more substantially identical resistors are printed on a second surface such that each resistor on the second surface is directly opposite a resistor on the first surface. The opposing resistors are then electrically interconnected in mating pairs, so that when the substrate is flexed, one resistor of each pair is compressed and the other is tensed with the result that the changes in resistance cancel one another.
