The PCB membrane switch is a versatile solution widely employed in consumer electronic devices. Consisting of layers including a top graphic overlay, a spacer layer, and a bottom circuit layer, it ensures a slim profile, durability, and resistance to environmental factors.
The graphic overlay, featuring printed symbols or graphics representing the keys, is the visible layer. Key functions are achieved through conductive traces on the bottom circuit layer. When a key is pressed, the layers make contact, completing the circuit and registering the keypress.
These membrane switches are commonly utilized in devices such as remote controls, medical equipment, and various consumer electronics where a compact and reliable keypad is essential.
