The specifications below are those stated in the product listing; the exact controller and board revision are not identified.<\/p>\n<h4>\ud83d\udd27 Listed specifications<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Supply voltage: 3\u20135 V<\/li>\n<li>Digital output (DO): HIGH when touch is detected<\/li>\n<li>Analog output (AO): described as a voltage proportional to touch level<\/li>\n<li>Response time: up to 220 ms in low-power mode<\/li>\n<li>Operating current: typically 1.5 \u03bcA in low-power mode; 3.0 \u03bcA maximum<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Pin\/function note:<\/strong> Confirm that your board revision actually provides both AO and DO and check its printed pin labels before wiring.
