TTP223 Pad Connections


how is the pad connected to the ground/io/vcc?
I’ll check the module schematic/connectivity so I can explain exactly how the three pads map to GND, IO, and VCC.
The schematic currently shows three terminal pads labeled VCC, I/O, and GND, but no nets/wires have been defined yet. So electrically, Flux does not currently show them connected to anything else.
Conceptually on a TTP223 touch module:
  • VCC pad → power input, typically 2.0–5.5 V depending on the module/IC version
  • GND pad → ground/common reference
  • I/O pad → digital touch output signal to your Arduino/MCU input pin
So you would wire it like:

Text


TTP223 VCC  → Arduino 5V or 3.3V
TTP223 GND  → Arduino GND
TTP223 I/O  → Arduino digital input pin
The touch pad electrode itself is not one of those three external pads; it connects internally to the TTP223 sensor input. The three exposed pads are just the power and output interface.
