No one invited but wanted to answer.
There are many kinds of mechanical switches, and there are many kinds of touch switches, which cannot be generalized.
Mechanical switches have logical and pure mechanical breaking mechanisms, which are related to the use of the environment.
If you operate with high current and high voltage, I want to give you a simple rubber contact switch you dare not use.
If you use a pure mechanical boat switch, the size is very large! So what about using logic circuits to control relays?
Touch switches are more complex, thermal switches, photoelectric switches, capacitive switches, capacitive touch screens, and resistance touch screens are all considered touch switches, but there is a common point that requires the logic circuit to maintain polling, that is, there is always a power consumption, which may be small but must be.
A purely mechanical switch does not require current maintenance, so it can really shut down (in fact, I like this feature).
It is a trend to use touch switches in electronic products, but how to maintain low standby current, maintain the sensitivity to wake up, and the reliability of operation are the problems.
Electrostatic isolation, wet environment, service life are to be considered and overcome.
Mechanical switches are ugly, but simple ！！！！！！！！
It's nice to touch the switch.
Touch screen switch OK
The touch screen switch generally refers to a wall switch designed by the principle of touch sensing chip, which is a replacement of the traditional mechanical push-button wall switch. More intelligent, more convenient operation.
This depends on personal preferences and uses, like some high-end hotels have chosen to touch the switch. The average switch is indeed more durable than touch to some extent. Han-create value with your heart!
