# Capacity Touch Sensor Example

(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)

This example is going to demonstrate how to register the touch channels and read the data.

## How to Use Example

### Hardware Required

* A development board with any supported Espressif SOC chip (see `Supported Targets` table above)
* A USB cable for power supply and programming
* (Optional) Touch board with touch buttons on it.
    - If you don't have a touch board, you can connect the touch pins with male jump wires and touch it directly for testing.

### Configure the Project

You can determine the touch channel number by ``EXAMPLE_TOUCH_CHANNEL_NUM`` in the example. And adjust the active threshold by ``s_thresh2bm_ratio``.

### Build and Flash

Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:

```
idf.py -p PORT build flash monitor
```

(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)

See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

## Example Output

You can see the following output in the monitor if the example runs successfully (take ESP32-P4 for example):

```
Touch [CH 0] enabled on GPIO2
Touch [CH 1] enabled on GPIO3
Touch [CH 2] enabled on GPIO4
Touch [CH 3] enabled on GPIO5
=================================
Initial benchmark and new threshold are:
Touch [CH 0] 0: 5161, 77         1: 5121, 76     2: 2533, 37
Touch [CH 1] 0: 5007, 75         1: 5036, 75     2: 2464, 36
Touch [CH 2] 0: 5086, 76         1: 5056, 75     2: 2487, 37
Touch [CH 3] 0: 4965, 74         1: 4989, 74     2: 2433, 36
=================================

=================================
benchmark [CH 0]: 5159 5121 2533

benchmark [CH 1]: 5005 5036 2464

benchmark [CH 2]: 5085 5056 2487

benchmark [CH 3]: 4964 4990 2433
smooth    [CH 3]: 4964 4990 2433
...
```

And if you touch and release a button, you will see the following output:

```
