Electronic Reverse Printing Custom Tactile Dome Switch With High Performance

How Tactile Dome Switches Work

• Mechanism: The switch consists of a dome-shaped metal component that rests against a circuit board. When the dome is pressed, it collapses and makes contact with a secondary pathway on the circuit board, closing the circuit and sending an electrical signal to the device .
• Feedback: The design allows for a crisp tactile feel, letting users know that the button has been successfully pressed .

Types of Tactile Dome Switches

There are several types of tactile dome switches, each with unique characteristics:

1. Four-Legged Domes: Commonly used, these provide high actuation forces and are highly customizable.
2. Round Domes: Ideal for low-profile applications, offering a softer tactile feedback.
3. Triangle Domes: Suitable for limited circuit board space, providing high actuation forces relative to their size.
4. Oblong Domes: Designed for long narrow spaces, allowing for a full-hand squeeze.
5. SMT Domes: Surface-mount technology domes that integrate directly into circuit boards without affecting performance .

Advantages

• Durability: Many tactile dome switches, such as those from Snaptron, can exceed five million life cycles, making them highly reliable for long-term use .
• Versatility: They can be customized for various applications, including different actuation forces, heights, and tactile feedback requirements .
• Cost-Effectiveness: Tactile switches generally have fewer moving parts compared to other mechanical switches, which can lead to lower costs and longer lifespans .

Applications

Tactile dome switches are widely used in:

• Keyboards and keypads
• Medical devices
• Consumer electronics
• Aerospace and aviation controls
• Communication devices .

 LED membrane switch descriptions:
 

1)Material---for front or face overlay

Polyester

1.Highly versatile for embossing 2.Highly resistant to chemicals

3.Better durability 4.For internal and external use

Polycarbonate

1.Wide range of surface finishes and thicknesses

2.More cost-effective 3.For internal and external use

2) Embossing--rim embossing pillow embossing dim embpssing

Graphic overlays can be embossed in order to insert domes (tactile), leave space for mechanical keys and provide tactile indications Pedestal embossing

3)Windows ----for display function

1. print colors windows

2.transparent finishes windows

4)Keys/buttons

Tactile keys---with metal dome or poly dome

Non-tactile--silver printing spot

5) Embeded LEDs-

miniature LED, LED colors:white, yellow, orange, green, red, etc.

6)Cable

is an extension of the printed circuit and is used to communicate with your device

7)Types of connector

1.Zero insertion force (ZIF) connector; 2.Female connector; 3.male connector

8) EMI / RFI / ESD Shielding

use an aluminum foil shielding / a clear ITO electrical conductive polyester

9) Adhesive ----mostly used are 3M-double-side glue

10)Backplate---in aluminum, polycarbonate or acrylic
