Power Button Click by Sparkfun

Introducing the Button Power Click, an engaging interactive gadget on a Click board. It's an integrated capacitive touch sensor display, shaped like a button, that leverages advanced touch sensing technology to replace traditional mechanical buttons. This sensor not only detects touch but also boasts a green power symbol icon with backlight, making it perfect for creating stylish, visually appealing interfaces. The Click board is backed by the mikroSDK compliant library, simplifying software development. With an advanced integrated touch sensor IC in a robust housing, it can sense touch even with wet hands or certain types of gloves, making it ideal for interfaces in public gaming consoles, slot machines, media players, home appliances, and more. The Button Power Click features the CTHS15CIC05ONOFF sensor, providing capacitive touch sensing in an appealing housing with a backlit power symbol icon. It uses a minimal number of pins, with touch detection indicated by a HIGH logic level on the OUT pin and the IN pin powering two internal LEDs. The sensor IC, sensing pad, and LEDs are enclosed in a compact, durable casing, offering advantages over mechanical buttons like no wear, no bouncing or chattering, and durability against weather elements. It can operate with wet hands, gloves, or behind clear glass or plastic layers up to 3mm thick.
