# Capacity Touch Sensor Example (for hardware version 3)

(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:

```
W (461) touch: [sample_cfg_id 0] clock precision loss, expect 4000000 hz, got 4006725 hz
W (461) touch: [sample_cfg_id 1] clock precision loss, expect 8000000 hz, got 8013450 hz
W (461) touch: [sample_cfg_id 2] clock precision loss, expect 16000000 hz, got 16026900 hz
Initial benchmark and new threshold are:
[CH 0] 0: 4114, 411      1: 2057, 205    2: 1028, 102
[CH 1] 0: 4643, 464      1: 2322, 232    2: 1160, 116
[CH 2] 0: 4848, 484      1: 2424, 242    2: 1211, 121
