Button-bolt-on
Introduction
The Button Bolt-on for the ESP32-X2 development board features a TS-1002S-04326C tactile switch and WS2812B 2020 RGB LEDs. The TS-1002S-04326C is a compact, low-profile push button from XUNPU, designed for reliable on/off operation in space-constrained applications. Its 6x6 mm size and 4.3 mm actuator height make it easy to use while minimizing accidental activations. This switch is widely used in consumer electronics and industrial control panels.The WS2812B 2020 RGB LED, known for its minimal 2x2 mm size, offers individually addressable lighting with vibrant colors, operated with a 5V power supply. It is perfect for space-sensitive applications like wearables and mobile devices.Each tactile switch on the Button Bolt-on board is paired with two WS2812B 2020 RGB LEDs, providing a total of four switches and eight LEDs. This combination enhances the interactivity and visual feedback for user inputs.
