3. TECHNICAL BRIEF
3.8 Keypad Switches and Scanning
The key switches are metal domes, which make contact between two concentric pads on the keypad
layer of the PCB when pressed. There are 22 switches , connected in a matrix of 5 rows by 5 columns,
as shown in Figure 3-8, except for the power switch (END), which is connected independently.
Functions, the row and column lines of the keypad are connected to ports of AD6726.
The columns are outputs, while the rows are inputs and have pull-up resistors built in. When a key is
pressed, the corresponding row and column are connected together, causing the row input to go low
and generate an interrupt. The columns/rows are then scanned by AD6726 to identify the pressed key.
