Working Principle

Description

The Grove Touch Sensor v1.1 utilizes the TTP223-B touch detector IC to measure the capacitance of a metallic pad and detect changes in capacitance when a finger is touched near it. This technology allows the sensor to function as a touch button, similar to the touch screens of iPhones.
