TK, anybody
The output pin on DOUT is connected through a diode and key contact to the input pin on the
DIN. What value pull up resistor should be on the DIN PIN?
Is a pull up resistor needed on the Dout output pin?
Will the voltage drop to ground on the DOUT pin be lower if a ULN2803 driver chip is used at 5vdc inbetween the shift register and the output pin similar to the setup for driving magnets?
Thanks,
johnc

Heres SomeBody,

my Button Matrix without LED has to be connected over common Cathode at DOUTX4.

16x32 - 16 (Col) Channels at 2 Shift Register on DOUTX4 with original Resistors (220) over a Diode [Cathode - Anode] thru 32 Buttons at 4 Shift Register on DINX4 with original Resistors (10k).

I don´t know anything about the setup with ULN2803.
