DrBunsen Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 4x4 Matrix Keypad with DIL header. US$8.33, price breaks at qty 10, 25, 50, 100.From Sunrom, who have a bunch of other interesting stuffIt'd be handier if the DIL header was on the back :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jidis Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Seems like it would be straight individual connections with all those pins (unless they waste a bunch of them).I like that digit display (...but then, I like all digit displays :))George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavotronic Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 It'd be handier if the DIL header was on the back :-\Just sold it at the back like this:Just dont push the header completely in the PCB and you'll have some place to solder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBunsen Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Well if the throughs are plated you could solder it on the front side too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilba Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Sorry, I don't get it... what's so great about this 4x4 button matrix? No diodes to prevent ghosting, DIL socket on the wrong side for frontpanel usage, tactile switches with shafts so short you can't poke them through a front panel... sounds like a lot of compromising just to avoid soldering your own. You should be able to make your own with longer shaft switches, diodes and some prototyping board, for less money (OK, maybe an hour or two of soldering) and it's exactly what you want.
