SILICONE KEYPAD PARTNER
Silicone keypads have revolutionized the electronics industry due to their cost-effectiveness and versatility. Silicone rubber, being a low-cost and adaptable material, has emerged as the preferred choice for keypads in electronic devices. Its unique properties, both organic and inorganic, make it ideal for electronic parts requiring special features.
Compared to organic rubber, silicone rubber offers superior performance in various aspects such as heat and cold resistance, weatherability, electrical insulation, conductivity, flex fatigue resistance, and tear strength. These qualities make silicone rubber keypads highly durable and reliable, ensuring prolonged functionality even after numerous actuations.
The silicone keypad serves as the functional core of a switch, facilitating electrical contact between the user and the device. Combining the smooth texture and durability of silicone rubber, these keypads can withstand hundreds of thousands of actuations without failure. They employ various contact systems, ranging from gold pills to carbon pills, to ensure effective operation.
Mounting silicone rubber in a membrane switch assembly can be achieved through two common methods. In the first method, the keypad is placed in a mounting rubber actuator using double-sided pressure-sensitive silicone rubber adhesive. The second method involves incorporating a pull-through molded into the rubber itself, which is then secured into the assembly through an interference fit on a printed circuit board substrate.
