Direct Coupled On/Off Touch Switch
![](https://www.simplecircuitdiagram.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/ON-OFF-TOUCH-SWITCH.gif)
The following touch switch circuit uses a CA3240 dual BiMOS op amp to sense small currents flowing between the contact points on a touch plate. Since this circuit is directly coupled with line voltage, a 1 M resistors in series with the touch plates is employed to ensure user safety, avoiding hazardous high voltage shock. This high resistor values is […]
