How To Make a Touch Sensor Circuit (Using Only Transistor)

Touch Sensor Circuit
In this tutorial I teach you how to make a simple touch sensor LED switch. This electronic switch I make basically uses your finger as a resister to complete the circuit and light up the LED. You can also replace the LED for a buzzer or any other output component if you wish.

can I use jumping wires for the touching wire? I only have jumping wires

[@FartGamer39]

That is really cool

[@l032radhakulkarni7]

This one is capacitive touch sensor or resistive touch sensor?

[@nothinginteresting1662]

How much current flows through your finger? Can you feel it?

[@PaulSmith-ry8vz]

Wow, good job it looks complicated but you make it look easy.

[@avishkarkhandagle71]

Can you tell there is capacitive touch sensor or resistive touch sensor

[@BharatMohanty]

Nice .but one suggestion I know how it works but for others you should provide circuit diagram in your videos.keep going👍

[@santoshdharme5927]

Check out Sidtronics

[@user-du2yc5qd6g]

How it was working

[@BharatMohanty]

​@@user-du2yc5qd6g this is kind of transistor switch... basically when he touches the wires his body acts as a resistor and current flows through his body to transistors base....that triggers the transistor and led glows...

[@porankiabhishek5500]

Except led and transistor what are the other things? I didnt understand

[@helloworld3979]

9vote battery with resistor and wire

[@kartikeypipada5522]

Nice work.Is breadboard necessary ,can't we connect it as it is by manually joining termimals.

[@rakshanaggarwal4032]

you can obviously... he is using so that y[all can understand how to make it

[@Omar_Dorrah]

No, you can connect them directly.
Breadboard only make things easier but it's not necessary.

[@AzizKhan-cl2bn]

Is there any data.
Means any presentation or any document link.
That will help a lot in understanding

[@Omar_Dorrah]

It simply makes use of the transistor's characteristics.
If you apply a very small voltage to its base, it will allow current to flow from it's collector to it's emitter. And he when he touches the wires his body acts as a conductor which conducts a very small current to the base, yet it's enough to make the transitor conduct current (from the battery) to the LED.

[@itsdevdelhi]

Pls provide Circuit Diagram

[@amar93chaniago]

Hi there, if I want it off if I touch? what should be different

[@nothinginteresting1662]

Use PNP transistor instead of NPN
Explanation:
This works because your finger conducts electricity and completes the circuit. When the circuit is complete, base current is appreciable and so the collector conducts, turning on LED.
If you want the reverse behavior, i.e. the LED should turn off when you place finger, you need to disconnect an already conducting transistor. When base current increases, collector current decreases in case of PNP transistor.

[@specterspectators2591]

great video! question: i made two on the same breadboard but the first led is dimmer than the other, do i lower resistance on the one going to the dimmer led?

[@helloworld3979]

You did exactly what he did and it work?

[@bhargavacharya4075]

That two stripped wire on middle is what type of wire

[@divineokose4462]

Soldering lead

[@rs-sl1tn]

How many volts battery?

[@nothinginteresting1662]

9V

[@trickz4days655]

Hi

[@frfvipcom3994]

No benefit from this circuit.
Please teach us how to connect it to relay to make a touch button on off
Thanks
