A membrane switch or more precisely a standard membrane switch assembly is comprised of several flexible layers that make up a complete switch package. This assembly can have as few as one active area (key or button) to several dozen active areas. A custom key membrane switch is an interface between man and machine, which enables an operator to communicate with equipment, instrumentation, or machinery. Subsequently, this allows the operator to communicate with the device, issuing commands and/or performing other operations. The operator presses the membrane button panel when he or she wants to control the device.

Construction of Membrane Switch
Graphic Overlay – PET/PC is usually the operator panel overlay material of choice due to its fantastic chemical resistance and flex property. Komkey offers one button membrane switch customized design services such as digital printing, screen-printing, or apply both methods to ensure you get the right colors, textures and finish your membrane switch design requirements.

Adhesive Overlay – This adhesive layer sticks the membrane switch pad to the top circuit layer, and is usually an acrylic adhesive. The material is the same as the fourth layer. Only the thickness is maybe different according to the actual situation.

Top Circuit Layer – The material of this layer is specific. It is a 0.1mm thickness thermostable PET film printed with conductive silver ink and also dielectric oil, which used for fastening metal domes.

Circuit Spacer – This layer separates the top circuit from the bottom circuit so that the touch membrane remains normally break until the membrane switch keypad is pressed. The circuit spacer is a polyester spacer with adhesive on both sides.

Lower Circuit Layer – This layer is a 0.1mm-0.25mm thickness thermostable PET film printed with conductive silver ink and also dielectric oil. This layer terminates as a flexible tail that serves as an interconnector to controller PCBs or other IC.

Rear Adhesive – This adhesive layer bonds the entire membrane switch to the product surface, housing, or to a rigid support panel. Komkey, one of the membrane switch keypad suppliers, can use the proper adhesive type and thickness to bond your membrane switch to your equipment.

How to Repair the Malfunctioning Microwave Oven Membrane Switch?(2023年09月01日)

kom-key — 2023-08-18T11:39:56+0900

https://www.kom-key.com/how-to-repair-the-malfunctioning-microwave-oven-membrane-switch.html

Two common faults in microwave ovens are mostly related to membrane switches or FPC printed circuits.

(1) Most of the key switches in the keyboard fail. This failure is usually caused by the leakage of the membrane switch or FPC. The electricity leakage is caused by long-term moisture or moisture erosion of the microwave computer board and it is sometimes difficult to judge whether there is electricity leakage from the appearance of the circuit board. Therefore, if necessary, it will be effective in most times that you directly use absolute alcohol to wipe or clean the membrane switch, FPC and computer board. This kind of failure may also be caused by several disconnections in the FPC printed circuit at the same time, but these disconnections are basically caused by improper maintenance, so they are not common. When checking, you can quickly check the fault by just seeing with the naked eyes or measuring with a multimeter. Then as long as you re-solder the broken wire, the fault can be eliminated.

(2) Individual key switches in the keyboard are malfunctioning. The main reason for this failure is that the FPC circuit corresponding to the failed switch is broken or the membrane switch is in poor contact. You can find the membrane switch corresponding to the malfunctioning switch and repair it.

The failure of the microwave oven buttons is probably due to the aging of the membrane switch panel. If it is more than four years, it is recommended that you replace the membrane switch panel, and it is OK as long as you replace it with one of the same model and specification. This replacement can be done by removing the control panel by people as long as they have basic operational ability. If you can't buy a membrane switch panel, you can also change it to a micro switch. The circuit should be wired according to the old membrane switch board, and the panel can be done by drilling holes, installing micro switches, fixing and wiring with silica gel.

After the microwave oven is used for a long time, the membrane switch may be aging. In this case, the switch that are used with longer time is really not useful, so there is no need to spend money on repairs, and you can replace the membrane switch panel. If the membrane switch fails when used for short time, then it is necessary to see if the machine is affected in any way, such as whether it is damp or corroded by water. These problems are required to be studied carefully.

Anything in the use of maintenance and repair needs, then, is how to fix a membrane keyboard it?

1. Unpack the film panel again to open the top layer of the film according to health. Each of the connecting positions with a multimeter isolated by the Kin switching point of the circuit board to ensure the connection point of the switch after the modification and corresponding to the original.

2, at each switching point of the lower layer film with good positioning, tapered metallic cone bit dish plate holes. The size of the perforations than the logo switch actual column dimensions are slightly larger. Logo switch according to ensure the health column moves up and down unobstructed bore appropriate. If the hole is too small will switch ring-shaped resilient action switch malfunction.

3, Gold and Iron tablets of each aperture plate. The logo printed play switch fixed plate. Each switch and press the corresponding connection point Na connect the cable. The real space position while the third metal plate between the display panel 2 and the corresponding left the edge of the printing plate drama. A fixed switching plate. Because the new switch plate is a metal plate in between the display panel and the LEDs in the printing plate must also be perforated with holes corresponding to the display panel position indicator 2 to ensure that the light-emitting tube passes through the display panel from PCB a display panel can see the signal. At the same time have a certain distance between the two circuit boards and to prevent short circuits.

As long as the replacement of the same type and specifications of the membrane switch panels can (scouring the Internet, as long as there are not very old models), as long as the replacement control plates removed, as long as the basic ability will do (if not the ability it is no chance). If the buy membrane switch panel, may be changed to a micro switch, to a wiring circuit according to the old membrane switch panel, the panel by drilling, mounting the microswitch, silica gel stationary and the wiring, the wiring on it.

Film Switch Characteristics And Applications(2023年09月01日)

kom-key — 2023-08-18T11:38:17+0900

Characteristics and applications of membrane switch
As we all know, the switch plays a role of transmitting instruction information in electronic machine products. There are many kinds of switches, and their development is constantly updated with the progress of electronic products. In the 1950s, key switch, toggle switch, change-over switch of discrete components were dominant; in the 1960s, combination switch represented by piano key switch appeared and completed simple function conversion; with the expansion of application field and the increase of whole machine function, conductive rubber keyboard switch appeared in the 1970s, while membrane switch is a new type of electronic device researched and developed in the late 1970s and early 1980s, which conforms to the needs of miniaturization, digitalization, intellectualization and multi-functional development of electronic machine products.

The membrane switch is a kind of contact switch, which is made by contact circuit printed by conductive paste on flexible polycarbonate or polyester membrane.

The membrane switch is a planar type electronic machine control system with multi-layer combination, sealed structure integrating key switch, panel function mark, transparent reading display window, indicator light window hole and circuit.

The membrane switch has the following characteristics:
(1) durability

The service times of membrane switch can reach more than one million times of creeping generally. The reason why it has such a long service life is that the action of the switch is only realized by the vertical movement of the elastic membrane. Although the elastic membrane undergoes one million times of creeping, the creeping range is only 0.1 ~ 0.3mm (i.e. switch stroke). Furthermore, the material selection is rational, so it is far from reaching the limit of the membrane so that the membrane material can withstand more than one million times of creeping without deformation. On the other hand, the contact of the switch is vertical, and the wear extent is very small; the screen printed contact can form enough thickness, and a layer of conductive carbon is printed on the silver paste contact to achieve the purpose of high wear resistance and self lubrication, so the service life of the membrane switch is more than ten times longer than that of the mechanical contact switch.

(2) good sealing performance

As the membrane switch is an integral sealed structure, the contact of the switch is not subject to the erosion of harmful gases and is not easy to be oxidized; it has the characteristics of waterproof and dustproof, so it is more suitable for various harsh environments.

(3) small volume, light weight and reliable structure

The membrane switch can be arranged and combined into a membrane keyboard in the design. Its setting density is large, and it is a sealed sheet structure composed of multi-layer membranes. The connecting wires and leading-out between all switches are completed by screen printing at one time, with a total thickness of 1 ~ 3mm, which reduces the volume and the weight and improves the reliability.

(4) rich in color and beautiful appearance

Membrane switch can be personalized in the design of color pattern according to the user's design concept, and the comprehensive characteristics of material beauty, decoration beauty and process beauty can be reflected in the decoration effect.

(5) reduce the matching cost of mechanical and electrical products

The traditional mechanical switch needs to be welded when it is installed, even with the fixed bracket. The membrane switch is a paste type one, and as long as the back adhesive paper is removed, it can be firmly pasted on the surface of the whole machine with the adhesive side. Its lead outlet is inserted into the socket of the rear circuit of the whole machine, and the circuit can be connected in an instant. The membrane switch not only save labor and material but also reduce the matching cost of the whole machine.

Application of membrane switch

The membrane switch is a kind of non-self-locking switch. It is applicable to the working occasions with switch power less than 1W, maximum working voltage of 42V (DC) or 25V (DC) and maximum working current less than 100 mA. It can be widely used in all microcomputers, CNC, intelligent instruments, meters and electronic circuits with discrimination and memory functions and other fields.

Car Stereo Wiring Harness(2023年09月01日)

kom-key — 2023-08-18T11:37:24+0900

https://www.kom-key.com/car-stereo-wiring-harness.html

The car stereo wiring harness is very important for the car audio. A good harness is to ensure safety first, followed by anti-interference and attenuation. Car audio wiring harness can be divided into two categories: signal lines and power lines.

1. Signal harness
It is required to have good anti-interference, reduce signal attenuation, good contact, and prevent oxidation at the joint. Some signal wires are usually made of special alloy materials, snap ring plugs, and gold-plated on the plug surface to prevent oxidation.

1) Wrap the joint of audio signal wire with insulating tape to ensure insulation. When the joint contacts with the vehicle body, noise may be generated.

2)Keep the audio signal line as short as possible. The longer the audio signal line is, the easier it is to be interfered by the noise signal. Note: if the length of the audio signal line cannot be shortened, the extra long part should be folded up instead of rolled up.

3) The wiring of audio signal line shall be at least 20cm away from the power line of driving computer unit and power amplifier. If the wiring is too close, the audio signal line will pick up induced noise. Separate the audio signal cable and power cable on both sides of the driver's seat and the passenger's seat. Note that when wiring near the power line and microcomputer unit, the audio signal line must be more than 20cm away from them. If the audio signal line and power line need to cross each other, it is recommended to intersect at 90°.

2. Power harness
The car audio harness requires stable current and voltage, low impedance and low current attenuation. The selection of the power supply wire depends on the power. The larger the power is, the larger the current is, the coarser the wire needs to be selected. Generally, pure metal wires with high purity are used as materials, and enthusiasts may use pure silver wires. In addition to the good insulation properties of the insulating material surrounding the power cord, it must be able to withstand high temperatures.

Application of Membrane Switch Keypad in Military Electronic Product Design(2023年09月01日)

kom-key — 2023-08-18T11:36:53+0900

https://www.kom-key.com/application-of-in-military-electronic-product.html

With the emergence of the membrane touch switch, it has become more and more widely used in military products, which has caused a fundamental change in the design of military electronic products. The membrane switch is also called a touch panel, a membrane button, a membrane flexible switch, and the like. It is a monolithic structure made up of flat multi-layer films. It is a new mechatronics product that seals masks, buttons, and substrates together. Its lifetime is generally several dozen times longer than other mechanical switching devices, or even hundreds of times, and its lifetime can reach millions of times.

Since the 1990s, under the premise of ensuring reliable quality, aesthetics, practicality, and economy have been mentioned as important positions, becoming an important additional function of military products. The image of military products is "stupid, big and rough" was completely changed. In this situation, the membrane switch is widely used in military keypad for its unique reliability, aesthetics, practicability, convenience, and economy, which has revolutionized the structural design of military products and greatly improved the appearance of military products. However, due to its unique peculiarity and importance, military products must make necessary changes in design and construction when applied to military products. Instead of adopting general-purpose design methods for civilian products, The harsh use environment and routine test environment of military products.

The military product is a special product. It has strict requirements on the membrane switch button and requires reliable quality, strong stereoscopic effect, and good hand feeling. There are many types of membrane switch buttons, such as flat keys, stereo keys, light hand keys, heavy hand keys, and special keys. However, as a military product, a stereo heavy hand key is preferred, which is beautiful in appearance, convenient in operation, and strong in hand.

As a military product, the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility are quite strict. Electromagnetic compatibility is an important technical indicator of military products, which will directly affect the technical performance of the whole machine. Membrane switches used in military applications must comply with electromagnetic compatibility requirements.

Like electromagnetic compatibility, high and low-temperature routine tests are also an important technical indicator for military products.

Cable Harness(2023年)

kom-key — 2023-03-29T17:05:54+0900

https://www.kom-key.com/products/cable-harness.html

What is Cable Harness
A cable and wire harness also referred to as a wire harness, wiring assembly, cable assembly or custom wiring loom, is an assembly of electrical cables or wires which transmit signals or electrical power. The cables are bonded together with a durable material such as vinyl, rubber, electrical tape, conduit, a weave of extruded string, or a combination thereof. Commonly used in automobiles, car, and construction machinery, cable harnesses has several advantages over loose wires and cables.

Application and environment are the two major factors that determine the types of the wire harness. Based on these two factors, there are 3 types of harness cable loom assembly.

Open Bundle:

The cable and harness assembly is attached to the connectors and lugs and are coupled in bundles with various breakouts using plastic tie wraps or waxed lacing twine.

Closed Bundle:

Wires are bundled with a covering, such as pulled-on braided tubing, braided-on Nomex or nylon, or in some cases, metal braid.

Waterproof Harnesses:

The junctions between the legs and backshells of the connectors are molded with a material such as urethane or rubber compounds.

Components of Cable Harness

Wire

The role of the wire is to carry current to convey signals and provide power. It itself contains internal copper wires and external insulating materials. Commonly used specifications have a nominal cross-sectional area of 0.3, 0.5, 0.85, 1.25, 0.3, 0.5, 0.8, etc. Wires, each of which has a current value that allows the load, and reasonable use of electrical equipment for different powers, is the basis for a qualified harness. With the increase of the functions of automobiles, the widespread use of electronic control technology, more and more electrical components, more and more wires, the thicker and heavier the wiring loom harness assembly becomes. In the future, the use of wires will be reduced, and modern cars have introduced CAN bus configurations using multiplex systems. Compared with the traditional point-to-point configuration of the wiring harness, the CAN bus greatly reduces the number of wires and connectors, making the cable and wire harness lighter and not limited.

Connector and Terminal

After the terminal and the electric wire assembly are crimped according to the standard, they are locked in the slot of the connector, and the male and female connectors are butted to meet the loop between the harness and the harness to the terminal. If it is arranged in the high humidity environment of the engine compartment, according to National regulations require that waterproof plugs be added.

Exterior Parts and Other Components

The exterior parts include a bellows, a polyethylene tube, a polyethylene cloth, a sheath, a sponge, a tape, a wire fastening harness bracket, etc., in order to place the wire to wear and break. Meet the temperature and humidity requirements of different positions of the body. Generally, corrugated pipe, polyethylene pipe, polyethylene cloth, hard pipe, and sheath are used to prevent the wire from being worn and broken. The wire is wrapped with thin-walled and thick-walled tape, and the wire harness is fixed at a suitable position in the vehicle body by using clips of different shapes. The purpose of the rubber ring is to prevent the wire cable harness from being scratched when it passes through the gold hole.

Touch Panel(2023年02月18日)

kom-key — 2023-02-03T10:24:15+0900

https://www.kom-key.com/products/touch-panel.html

What kinds of multi touch panel Are You Looking for?
A touch panel is one of the kinds of computer display screens, which can also be called an input device. Due to the sensitivity to the pressure of the touch panel sensor, users interact with the computer by touching the objects on the screen.

Three types of touch screens are listed below:

Resistive Touch Screen:

A resistive multi touch screen panel is a sensor that is basically a film-plus-glass structure that converts the physical position of a touchpoint (X, Y) in a rectangular area into a voltage representing an X coordinate and a Y coordinate. Resistive touch screen panels are generally more affordable but provide only 75% clarity and the layer may be damaged by sharp objects. Resistive touch screens are immune to external elements such as dust or water.

Surface Wave Touch Screen:

Surface wave technology integrates acoustics, electronics, and semiconductors into new technology. They have the advantages of small size, flexible design, mature technology, good consistency, and reliability. Surface wave technology uses ultrasonic waves that pass over the touch screen panel. Surface wave touch screen panels are the most advanced one of the three types of screen touch panels, but they can be damaged by external elements.

Capacitive Touch Screen:

The resistive touch screen panel is constructed by placing a transparent thin-film conductor layer on the touch panel glass and adding a protective glass to the conductor layer. This double glass design completely protects the conductor layer and the inductor. With the rise of smartphones and tablets, the capacitive touch screen panel market has been developing rapidly.

Touch Points of the Touch Panel
Single, or Dual/Multi-Touch?
Single-touch interaction is capable of, at a lower price, realizing all the applications' goals. Gesture interaction, including, flick, slide and knead, requires dual/multiple support. Select the alternative to continue.

Touch Points of the Touch Panel
Single Touch Point Only
Aiming at supporting single-touch input, resistance touch screen is designed. Various types of materials are available because there is no limitation of the materials which are used for input. Besides, resistance touch screens have the advantages of mature technology, stability, high-cost competitiveness, and excellent detection accuracy.

The advantage of single-touch is that the device design space is optimized, especially for small devices, because it can "install" screens and buttons in the same area at the same time; second, because the buttons can be bound to any application in the operating system, So the "buttons" used by the device can reach an unlimited number.

Touch Points of the Touch Panel
Multiple Touch Point Support
The user's two hands have ten fingers, and when the users interact with each other, more fingers appear on the screen. This is the origin of the multi-touch concept of recognizing the position of a finger, which enables manipulation of more than two fingers. Projected capacitive touch screens support single or multiple touchpoints. It allows for the interaction of gestures. One point to mention is that no part of the resistive multi touch screen physically will move at detection, and it makes the touch experience smoother and lighter (just like smart-phone).

A membrane graphic overlay is designed for use with rubber keypads, membrane switches or as a touch screen panel interface for control panels. In these applications, the printed graphics and text are used to providing operational instructions or safety warnings and label overlay buttons and controls.

However, with an aesthetic purpose, decorative membrane switches graphic overlays and panel overlay are printed with custom graphics, company logos or product information. They act as an intermediary between the user and the machine through functional descriptions, without conductive traces or circuitry.

The graphic keypad overlays or custom control panel overlay provides a variety of embossed keys, matte or glossy finishes, and a protective coated overlay to reduce the likelihood of fading. It also includes different material thicknesses from 0.125mm to 1mm to meet customers' specific applications.

How to Design the Graphic Overlay?
Sample: Provide drawings of graphic overlay prototypes that all dimensions and physical characteristics including colors or actual samples for copy are clearly shown.

Borders and Outlines: Avoid circles within circles, or outlines which are close to cutouts or outer edges because any misregistration will be visually accentuated.

File Format: It's best to receive design files from the native software packages. (ie Adobe Illustrator, Corel Draw or PDF files)

Background: Light text and dark backgrounds will show less wear and dirt and greater clarity. Try making the control panel overlay or the membrane overlay drawings clear.

Text: Block lettering provides the most legible copy. Try to use common fonts. Positive letter strokes should be a minimum of .008and .012for negative letter stroke.

1) Wrap the joint of audio signal wire with insulating tape to ensure insulation. When the joint contacts with the vehicle body, noise may be generated.

2) Keep the audio signal line as short as possible. The longer the audio signal line is, the easier it is to be interfered by the noise signal. Note: if the length of the audio signal line cannot be shortened, the extra long part should be folded up instead of rolled up.

Since the 1990s, under the premise of ensuring reliable quality, aesthetics, practicality, and economy have been mentioned as important positions, becoming an important additional function of military products. The image of military products is "stupid, big and rough" was completely changed. In this situation, the membrane switch is widely used in military products for its unique reliability, aesthetics, practicability, convenience, and economy, which has revolutionized the structural design of military products and greatly improved the appearance of military products. However, due to its unique peculiarity and importance, military products must make necessary changes in design and construction when applied to military products. Instead of adopting general-purpose design methods for civilian products, The harsh use environment and routine test environment of military products.

The military keypad is a special product. It has strict requirements on the membrane switch button and requires reliable quality, strong stereoscopic effect, and good hand feeling. There are many types of membrane switch buttons, such as flat keys, stereo keys, light hand keys, heavy hand keys, and special keys. However, as a military product, a stereo heavy hand key is preferred, which is beautiful in appearance, convenient in operation, and strong in hand.

Like electromagnetic compatibility, high and low-temperature routine tests are also an important technical indicator for military products.

Production Technology and Application Trend of Large Size Touch Panel(2022年)

kom-key — 2022-03-01T11:27:43+0900

https://www.kom-key.com/graphic-overlay/

In the past, touch panels with large screens could only adopt low-cost resistive or high-cost acoustic wave and external optical designs. Limited by the bonding yield in the past, projected capacitive multi-touch technology could only be used in small and medium-sized mobile devices. With the proficiency of G/G, In-Cell and other manufacturing technologies, as well as the evolution of touch sensing IC, it can now be used in the fields of 10-12 inch tablet, 13-17 inch thin/esports laptop, 20-22 inch AIO integrated computer, etc. Larger size (32 to 42 inches) connected TVs and multi-touch electronic whiteboards are also on the way.

From ATM and mutual assistance navigation systems in institutions, to electronic whiteboards in department stores, these devices that require touch applications are moving towards large-size trends just like mobile phones and tablets.

At present, Apple has only introduced projected capacitive multi-touch technology in small and medium-sized iPhone/iPod/iPad, and has only begun to introduce touchpad feedback power in desktops and laptops, and there are no designs to import a lot of touch applications. However, in the non-Apple camp, from Android phones and tablets to mainstream notebook computers of 12 to 17 inches have introduced projected capacitive multi-touch technology, and even some 20-inch desktop computers or computer dining tables, electronic whiteboards have also begun to use multi-touch technology.

Ⅰ. Production technology of large size touch panel
In the early stage, resistive touch technology, which is more common over 15 inches, is used to touch ITO Film with fingers or stylus, resulting in depression and voltage change, and then obtain the positioning position through A/D conversion operation processing. Due to its early debut, this kind of touch panel has excellent advantages in terms of material and technology costs. However, resistive touch technology has a resistive film that affects the light transmittance of the screen. It adopts a pressure-sensitive mechanical structure, which will reduce the service life under frequent use and long-term large amount of pressing.

Infrared and surface acoustic wave touch technologies are currently common technologies for large-size touch screens. The infrared type is equipped with a large number of infrared transmitters and receivers on the four sides of the screen, and the coordinate position of the touch is calculated by blocking the infrared light source when the finger clicks. Theadvantage is that the applicable size is quite large (6-167 inches); the response speed is fast; the positioning is accurate; and it is also quite durable. The disadvantage is that the infrared module cannot achieve high resolution due to the volume of the infrared module; the cost is high. The falling dust in the future and interference of ambient light are also the bottleneck of this technology.

In the surface acoustic wave type, a surface acoustic wave transmitter and a receiver are installed in the three corners of the screen, and the energy of the sound wave is absorbed when the finger touches the screen to calculate the coordinates of the energy change. Its application size is only 10-32 inches, but it has the advantage of high resolution compared to infrared type. However, as the reflective antenna around the screen needs to be customized and the yield is not high, the overall cost is relatively high.

Ⅱ. Application trend of large size touch panel
When users have become accustomed to the multi-touch experience of smartphones and tablets, many industry players are also actively developing multi-touch application solutions for medium and large screens. It also makes the large touch screen technology, which only used low-cost resistive technology in the past, or the high cost acoustic wave and external optical touch design face certain challenges.

For middle-large touch screens larger than 10.1 inches, a clear overlay or glass touch sensing layer was placed between the cover glass and ITO (TFT Array) or AMOLED panels in the past. The manufacturing method was changed from the GFF (Glass Film Film), the G/G (Glass to Glass Structure) structure shifts to two designs built in the ITO pixel layer (In-Cell) or externally mounted (Out-Cell).

In the case of In-cell, there are existing LCD screen integration solutions for VA/IPS/TN and other forms as well as the design scheme of in-cell collocation covering glass for large screens, which can obtain excellent picture effect in products with large display range, and maintain the material thickness of the screen at the same time. It is more suitable for high-end ultrabooks or morphing laptop products that emphasize thinning product design.
