FLEXIBLE MEMBRANE KEYBOARDS / SWITCHES

FLEXIBLE MEMBRANE KEYBOARDS / SWITCHES

     
 
A Membrane Keyboard has two screen printed polyester films with conductive ink to form the circuit layers of the keyboard. Between the two circuits, a die cut spacer at contact points is placed. To complete the circuit a touch of finger on the die cut holes allows to close the contact. Upon release, the circuit is broken. User can identify the specific key contacts through a Graphic Overlay. For interfacing with the customer’s electronics, the panel back is laminated with an adhesive for mounting on a backer or enclosure which can be terminated to a male/female clincher connector.

Rigid printed circuit board switches are utilized in situations with traditional membrane keyboards or the OEM customer may like to utilize
the PCB as a rigid backer that can also be populated with active and passive components reducing the amount of materials and
interconnections.

Technical Information :

In order to offer you the exact product as per your specification, it is recommended that you provide the following information to us.

Keyboards can be made with different specification depending upon your application. Mainly we need three kind of information to start a job.

1. Mechanical
2. Electrical
3. Graphical & Aesthetical.

Mechanical : Here you are requested to give the dimension of Keyboard, Display and LED locations, stud size and it’s location, switch size and it’s location, connector location and tail length and it’s location etc.

Electrical : Here you are advised to provide a detailed circuit drawing (Logic diagram) of electronic components with component specification including pin numbers of connector. However, we recommend to provide us the freedom to select connector pin numbers, so that we can minimize the cross connections and reduce complexity and improve the reliability of the keyboard. In case of flexible membrane keyboard, cost of product will reduce as well.

Graphical & Aesthetical: It is important to select proper overlay material depending upon the application. The most common and economical material is Polycarbonate. We use special grade polyester which is very suitable for embossing and gives good chemical and scratch resistance. In order to make an impressive and attractive overlay, it is important to choose proper color, shade, Font size, Font shape etc.

Our Graphical designer can provide you a good design after providing the following information.

1. Application of product (Consumer, Medical, Industrial etc.)
2. Enclosure color.
3. Functional characteristics of LED & Switch

You can choose a combination of matt and glossy finishes on the overlays. We can provide back ground illumination on selective areas of the keyboard (Electro-Luminescent Technology)

The aesthetic look of the keyboard can be further enhanced by embossing the switch and LED areas.
