Robert Cowan | Capacitive Touch Faceplate - LXmini Controller with TTP223 @RobertCowanDIY | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 10 minutes ago
I wanted a simple way to turn on and off the backlights for the VU meters on my LXmini controller. Instead of a pedestrian switch or knob, I decided to go with a TTP223 integrated into the faceplate which makes the faceplate touch-sensitive. It's a slick way to add a simple and intuitive user interface to your project.
