How to extend touch range on TTP223 touch sensors. My new project. Quick tip how to! Do it yourself

[@p.jbreit8214]

I was searching a long time for a solution to extend the touch range with a cable, your idea combined with a 47 pF capacitor between the S-point connection to reduce the sensability was the solution, thanks for your post !

[@PropGuru702]

Wait can you elaborate on this?

[@AliHussain-ds7jx]

Legend!! This is so sick been looking for how to do this for a while

[@el-sayedahmadbabars9232]

Brooooo.... I love you .... Thank you for sharing your knowledge ❤

[@Audi90projekts]

You welcome

[@schreibtisch2829]

Thanks! Really helped me out!

[@abbumahdi]

Hi, I want to know what's the power input you have or what power adapter you used.

How long could be that cable used as antena? And i could atach that antena in some metal object to transform the entire object in a switch?

[@FixitEasyDIY]

Nice one mate 😉

[@beutgt]

Hey thank you buddy. This hexagon table is definitely the trend of the moment and everybody want to understand how to do it..!!! Now how to make the fading effect when led goes off??

[@Audi90projekts]

That's what I want to do. To show everyone. Is nothing to hide.

[@terrencemurphy4545]

RC circuit; delay discharge to LED

[@gauravmathur4940]

Can you use capacitor ? To try to discharge slowly.

[@Audi90projekts]

@@gauravmathur4940 that's what i will do

[@MRCOOL-on6do]

Very nice 👍

[@magdinabi7942]

can you please confirm this, The TTP223 capacitive touch sensor does it have built-in timeout mechanism? the reason i am asking is i am trying to use the TTP223 in a way when i touched and keep touching it i want the LED stay ON while my hand touching it and when i release i want the LED to be OFF. i have tried it but after like 7 seconds the LED goes OFF even i am still touching the sensor. Can you help with that?

[@Audi90projekts]

You can use it in 3 ways. 1st As touch sensor 2nd as switch when u touch light goes on and stays until you touch again then it goes off. And 3rd is when u touch and keep your finger on sensor it will work but when u remove it goes off

[@magdinabi7942]

how? the 3rd is not true on my trial, i have tried many times, when i keep my finger on sensor it will work for 8 seconds exact then it will goes off. i want to work as the 3rd point you have mentioned but it is not @@Audi90projekts

[@रोहितलोहार-ख7फ]

Thank for the information ❤

[@parthjaja2282]

Everything works when your honest

[@ravipankajbaraik2574]

Thanks man I really appreciate

[@AangMuammarZein]

how to increase the output voltage? so that the LED can be brighter

[@Audi90projekts]

You cant on these sensors

[@HellRacer1963]

Hello from Germany, I have made all like you with the ttp223, my problem is that I have not the full power light on the led's, what can I do. Greets

[@Audi90projekts]

What voltage leds u have? Ttp223 sensors are reducing coltage

[@HellRacer1963]

​@@Audi90projekts I have ws2812b 5volt 18 pieces(leds) in 1 strip, I become only 4volt on the in/out connector on the ttp223

[@123mitko123]

Hi, what LCD strip are you using and how do you turn it on and off with the sensor?

[@Audi90projekts]

I'm using 5v led strip from usb. It's all connected to 1 power source. Once you touch se sor it turns on

[@unkwon.h]

Bro can you please explain by connecting it live with the led and extending the capactive range ❤

[@angelotabora8602]

hey guys, I just found an easier to do this. my dad is an electronics technician so when I ask him to solder the wire for me, he asked me to get the multimeter and he checked whether the leg of the component is connected to the soldering pad to the right of the leg. Turns out it is connected to that. Long story short instead of soldering the wire to the leg of the component which will be challenging to do, you can just solder the wire on the soldering pad or whatever it is called that is next to the leg. I notice there a top and bottom part of the pad, my one is connected to the bottom.

[@Audi90projekts]

Now u can buy complete sensors no need to do any modification. And have dimmable function

[@CancunManny]

@@Audi90projekts what are you talking about? My guess is that there is a different touch sensor module that already has a through hole to add the antenna and dimmable function. Would be helpful if you would share the actual model number of the module. What @angelotabora8602 mentioned is correct. instead of adding the wire/antenna to the leg of the component, you can use the lower soldering pad to connect the wire there. That pad and the leg of the component are connected. It seems depending on who you get your TTP223 will determine the size of the pad. The ones I am working with have very small pads, but I have seen same touch sensor with larger pads on some of these videos.

[@dam1lor]

Excellent! Thanks!

[@gauravmathur4940]

Thanks great

[@absurd.industries]

Thank you!

[@Audi90projekts]

Yiu welcome Today later I will do video where I'm.teying to make dimmable effect on my table

[@absurd.industries]

I would love to see that! I'm working on an LED lamp right now, I'll update and tag you if this works 👾 Hello from Bengaluru, India fellow tinkerer!

thank you Oscar

[@karimArt1]

Where can I buy this piece ttb please

[@Audi90projekts]

Ebay or amazon just type in ttp223

[@karimArt1]

@@Audi90projekts thank you very much

[@karimArt1]

Hello my friend, can you please help me on how to install 50 peace ttp 223 the schema plz

[@louieyata]

how long can I extend the range using wires?. nice vid

[@Audi90projekts]

If longer cable then longer range I believe. However on there is another option where u need some transistor I think

[@JohnSmith-iu8cj]

You did not show how you placed the antenna in the wood. Why don’t you show it? How are we supposed to see anything if you only lift it one cm?

[@Audi90projekts]

Now u can buy sensors which no need modifications and have dimable funcion

[@teddylickle1583]

thnx man

[@Misc.Workss]

I tried but nothing happened

[@Audi90projekts]

Maybe u did something wrong?
