Made from silicone rubber, EECO Elastomer keypads are available either conductive or non-conductive, single or multi-coloured, and to almost any shape to suit customers' individual design requirements. They may interface directly with a Printed Circuit Board or with a Membrane switch layer. Applications are widespread and varied.
There are two basic types of keypad:
INTEGRAL
A one-piece construction incorporating keys and keymat, available in a wide variety of colours and key shapes, with or without legends. Designed to be fitted directly into a bezel, typically in handheld equipment.
INNER
A keymat designed to act as a switching layer between the manual keys and membrane circuit/PCB, typically in a full-travel PC keyboard.
All EECO elastomer keypads are compression-moulded, utilising either single cavity prototype tooling for low volume or multi-cavity production tooling for medium and high volume to give the customer the most economical financial solution.
Elastomer keypads offer the design engineer the kind of versatility and user-friendliness that can meet any and all of his design requirements.
EECO integral type Elastomer keypads may be supplied 'with or without legends', with solid colours or in natural translucent colour. The latter are specified where backlighting is used, in which case the keys may be field-lighted (printed legend on translucent field) or reverse field-lighted (printed field with lighting through etched-out legend).
