Touch sensor is a kind of capacitive touch switch module, which can detect and respond to human touch. It has a built-in touch detection IC (TTP223B), which is able to convert the user’s touch action into electrical signals for interactive interaction with the device. The touch sensor outputs a low level when we touch a specific location with our finger, and switches to output a high level when there is no touch.
Applications: Widely used in touch screen mobile phones, tablet computers, smart watches, smart home, etc.

The module integrates a dedicated TTP223B capacitive touch detection IC, which reliably captures human touch and converts it into standard digital signals.
The sensor operates on a versatile DC voltage range from 3.3V to 5V, making it fully compatible with both 3.3V logic microcontrollers (like ESP32) and 5V systems.
Under normal non-touch conditions, the module outputs a default high-level digital signal. When a user's finger touches the active sensing area, it shifts to a low-level signal.
The sensor connects directly to an ESP32 extension setup via: VCC to 5V, GND to GND, CLK to SCL, and DIO to SDA.
This capacitive switch module functions reliably within an operating temperature range of -10°C to +60°C.
The physical PCB form factor of the module measures exactly 3.16cm in length by 2.38cm in width.
