If you’ve scavenged some random keypads and want to reuse them in a project without the hassle of figuring out the pinouts, then [Cliff Biffle] has an interface module for you. The Keypad Go connects ...
This idea builds on a previous IFD, "Connect Any Keypad With Any Microcontroller Using Only One Pin" (electronic design, May 1, 1998, p. 126), where a 555 timer connects a keypad switch matrix to a ...

In most keypads, pressing a key closes a contact that bridges two lines in an xy matrix. If you use a microcontroller to detect a key closure, checking the states of (x+y) lines requires an equal ...
A previous Design Idea described a single-wire-plus-ground-return, keypad-to-microcontroller interface in which a single pulse represents each keystroke (Reference 1). The pulse's width is ...
