Touch sensor part ID?
Can anyone help me identify this touch sensor module from a UK home bathroom light switch?
The IC is a QT113 charge transfer touch sensor, the only writing on the board is SAT 02.
I'd like to know enough about it to order replacements.

Easier way is to measure the voltage and get a new sensor... Afaik this qt113 runs at 5V
I have the datasheet for the qt113, it indeed uses 2.5-5 V. But I don't know what wide is going on there.
Is that other black component a transistor, and that's what's doing the switching for the lights based on the sensor output? Or is this whole board sending a digital signal to something else that switches the lights?
It's way out of my knowledge but it looks like the electrode for the touch is missing. It should be on the left corner where the "02" is printed on.
As you guessed the black thing is a transistor and should switch a led or probably a 5V relay. But please be careful since I'm guessing too xD
It looks to me like the through-hole Plating is gone. Could be worth soldering a wire from the top pad, through the hole directly to the “grid” on the back side. Need to scratch a bit of solder mask off the grid fill first.
