Customizable Windows And Keys For Enhanced Display And Functionality On High-Performance LCD Membrane Switches

 

High-performance LCD membrane switches can be enhanced with customizable windows and keys to improve display and functionality. Here's a breakdown of the features and considerations for these switches:

1. Customizable Windows

  • Materials: Windows are commonly made with clear or transparent materials to view LCDs or displays [1]. They can also be made with tinted or colored dyes to produce filters [1].
  • Finishes: Windows can have different gloss levels, including anti-glare finishes for outdoor use [1]. They can also have a matte finish [1].
  • Integration: Windows are integrated into the graphic overlay of the membrane switch [2]. The other layers of the switch have cut-outs in the window's position [2].
  • Optical Bonding: Windows can be optically bonded to add thickness and durability and to prevent damage [1].

2. Customizable Keys

  • Tactile Feedback: Keys can be designed with tactile feedback using metal domes or embossing to provide a crisp effect when pressed [3][4].
  • Programmable keys: LCD keys can be programmed to perform different functions [5].
  • Backlighting: Keys can be backlit using LEDs, fiber optics, or electroluminescent panels for better visibility in low-light conditions [6][7].

3. Membrane Switch Technology

  • Construction: Membrane switches are made of a printed polyester or polycarbonate overlay adhered to a printed circuit [4]. They are momentary action switches, meaning the circuit is closed only when the switch is pressed [4].
  • Materials: Conductive inks made of silver or carbon are used to print the circuitry [4][8]. The circuit can also be etched copper on a Kapton flex [4].
  • Durability: Membrane switches are known for their durability and resistance to moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures [9][10]. They can withstand actuation testing of millions of cycles [10].

4. Key Considerations for Design

  • Application: Consider the environment where the switch will be used, such as whether it will be exposed to moisture, chemicals, or extreme temperatures [6][9].
  • User Experience: Determine the desired user experience, including whether tactile feedback is needed and how the keys will be used [9][11].
  • Visibility: Consider the need for backlighting or other features to improve visibility in low-light conditions [6][9].
  • Customization: Membrane switches offer a wide range of customization options, including graphics, colors, textures, and embossing [9][11].

5. Additional Features

  • Display Windows: Membrane switches can be designed with clear or transparent windows for viewing LCD or LED displays [1][2].
  • EMI/RFI Shielding: Shielding can be added to protect sensitive electronics from interference [9].
  • Waterproof Design: Membrane switches can be designed to be waterproof for use in harsh environments [7][10].

Membrane Switch specification:

 

 

Overlay material ---For front or face overlay
Polyester Polycarbonate

1 Highly versatile for embossing

2 Highly resistant for chemicals

3 Better durability

4 For internal and external use

1 wide range of the surface finishes and thicknesses

2 More cost-effective

3 For internal and external use

4 many Lexan label choose

Embossing --- Graphic overlay or up circuit can be embossed in order to insert metal stainless steel domes for good tactile when press .Leave space for mechanical keys and provide tactile indications
Pedestal embossing Rim embossing Pillow embossing Dim embossing
Windows or LCD --- For display functions
Printed colors windows such like red ,black and so on Transparent finishes windows
Keys
Tactile Keys :witch metal domes or Poly domes ,Metal dome with different diameter and pressure kinds Non-tactile keys: printed silver spot on the circuit
LEDs ---Miniature LEDs ,LED colors :white ,Green ,Red ,Blue ,Yellow ,Orange and others
EL and Sensors or inductors --- EL can be light any place where where you like ,and sensors can be used as LEDs
Cables --- is extension of circuit and communication with your device
Screen printing conductive silver cable Copper plated cable /Polyimide or FPC PCB cable
Types of connector --- 1 Zero insertion force(ZIF) with 0.5MM ,1.0MM,1.25MM pitch ;2 Female connector with 2.54MM pitch; 3 Male connector
Shielding --- For protection function
Gasket seal/Waterproof :protect the conductors against from the humidity and splashes EMI/RFI/ESD Shielding: use an Aluminum foil shielding /clear ITO electrical conductive polyester to protect
Rear Adhesive --- Mostly use the 3M double-side mounting glue brand of USA. Also accepted others such like Lohmann and others
Back plate --- Use in Aluminum ,Polycarbonate ,Acrylic Or PMMA
Matching color --- PMS or RAL Is best ,CMYK or RGB also can be ok if you can supply PMS Or RAL
Standard Tolerances :+/-0.2MM
