Add lots of touch sensors to your next microcontroller project with this easy-to-use 8-channel capacitive touch sensor breakout board, starring the CAP1188.

This chip can handle up to 8 individual touch pads, and has a very nice feature that makes it stand out for us: it will light up the 8 onboard LEDs when the matching touch sensor fires to help you debug your sensor setup

Package Included:

1 x Capacitive touch sensor
2 x Pin Header

• Using this chip is a lot easier than doing the capacitive sensing with analog inputs.
• The CAP1188 has support for both I2C and SPI, so it easy to use with any microcontroller.
• Comes with a fully assembled board, and a stick of 0.1" header so you can plug it into a breadboard.
• If you are using I2C, you can select one of 5 addresses, for a total of 40 capacitive touch pads on one I2C 2-wire bus.
• Fast free shipping. Awesome customer service.
