■What is a membrane switch?
・Membrane switches are sheets that have a switch function by printing and processing circuits on a thin film base material.
-For this reason, it is also called a seat switch.
・Membrane switches are one of the familiar switches used in various products.
・It is used in the switches of electrical appliances used at home and inside computers used at work.
■Product description/Applications
The biggest feature of membrane switches is the integration of the circuit and switch. Normally, mechanisms and switches are mounted on the board, so it is necessary to adjust the height from the board and the clearance with the operating parts, but as the name suggests, this type, which is a "thin film", has the circuit, switch, and decorative sheet all on one sheet. Since it can be consolidated, it is possible to add operational functions regardless of the position of the main board as long as there is enough space to route the tail part.
Membrane switches have excellent design because they have a surface sheet attached to them, and can be processed in a variety of ways. Also, since the sheet is attached to the entire surface, it has a shield structure, so there is no need to worry about problems caused by dust, etc.
■Waterproof membrane switch
Membrane switches are also available in waterproof specifications. Membrane switches are functional components, so they must be designed with consideration to usage conditions such as the location and environment in which they will be used.
■KEY illuminated membrane switch
Rigid board type KEY lighted switches are limited in installation locations due to their component configuration, but this KEY lighted membrane switch is thin and can be handled in the same way as a regular membrane switch. The key is illuminated so you can clearly locate the key even in the dark. For example, you can make the KEY light blink to guide you to the key you need to press.
