3 Principle Descriptions
Key panel is an important part for external data transmission. Key panel can be divided by features
into partial CPU circuit, DC/DC conversion circuit, key control circuit, coder control circuit, LED
drive circuit and A/D acquisition circuit.
CPU is the core of key panel, used to process various information. It contains one MCU
(NXP1764) chip and external circuits.
DC/DC provides different levels for key panel.
Key control circuit is hardware of key processing.
Coder control circuit converses mechanical actions to recognizable signals for MCU.
LED control circuit indicates LED status.
A/D acquisition circuit converses analogue signals provided by slide pots to recognizable signals
for MCU.
