The 5-pin momentary breakout can be powered with anything from 1.8V to 5.5VDC. Just connect ground to GND and the positive voltage to VDD. This sensor does not have built-in touch pads, but you can create your own pads in any size or shape from wire, foil or any other conductive material. Simply connect your touch-pads to each of the 5 sense pins. When you touch the pad, the corresponding LED on the other side will light up. The chip only detects one touch-pad at a time to prevent false readings.
5 touch inputs in one device makes this the perfect component for building your own custom capacitive touch panel!
