Reset switches

Unread post by benpro »

I recently picked up a few different model ESP32 boards to try out--BAT, BAT-PRO, and FEATHER. On the FEATHER and the BAT-PRO, the tactile reset switches are unlike any I've seen before. Rather than the normal plastic button, they have a gold dome that depresses. Is this normal or has something damaged the switches? What's more, within the first day, both of the "gold dome" assemblies came loose, and now my switches are worthless. Anyone else have this problem or am I doing something wrong? Also, anyone have a part number for a replacement switch? Thanks.

I agree with your comment. I bought a couple of ESP32 feather boards a couple of weeks ago, and the reset could be used only with a sharp tool.
I am not sure if the reset pin can be used for the reset. Then you could put a button between that pin and ground assuming it has to be grounded for reset.
