Touch button/Physical button differences
:::warning Because the touch button is easy to accidentally activate while close to metal or in your pocket, Heltec has discontinued production of this version. However, a small number of samples have entered the market. :::
- Button differences
- Other hardware differences
- Removal of FDG6322C (a dual N & P channel FET) from the physical-button version.
- Antenna filter values physical-button version (L11 = 1.8pF, C15 = 2.7nH, C24 = 1.8pF) align more closely with ESP32-S3 reference design than touch-button version (L11 = 1.6nH, C15 = 6.9pF, C24 = 2.4pF).
