Its com- fortable actuation makes the module particulary suitable for low-cost con- struction of keyboards and keypads with great diversity and very low height. A multitude of different key cap shapes allows exible designs. Very short bounce time, reliable stroke, excellent tactile feeling and enormous cost- saving pave the way for a wide range of applications. view direction A Operating point Pressure point Reset point Drilling pattern, view direction A 68 travel (mm) force (cN)
