Electronic Reverse Printing Diy Membrane Switch With High Performance

Product Specification

 Electronic Reverse Printing Diy Membrane Switch With High Performance

Materials Needed

1. Conductive Ink or Conductive Tape: For making the circuit.
2. Non-conductive Material: Such as plastic or polyester for the layers.
3. Adhesive: Double-sided tape or glue.
4. Microcontroller (optional): For interfacing the switch with electronics (like Arduino).
5. Tools: Scissors, ruler, craft knife, and a soldering iron (if needed).

Steps to Create a Membrane Switch

1. Design the Layout:

   • Sketch the design of your switch on paper. Decide the number of buttons and their arrangement.

2. Create the Circuit:

   • Use conductive ink or tape to create the circuit paths. Ensure that the paths connect to the areas where you want your buttons to be.

3. Prepare the Layers:

   • Cut out the non-conductive material to match your design. You will typically need at least two layers: one for the button and one for the circuit.

4. Button Layer:

   • On the top non-conductive layer, cut out holes for the buttons. Use a craft knife for precision.

5. Adhesive Application:

   • Apply adhesive to the back of the button layer and carefully place it over the circuit layer, ensuring that the conductive paths align with the button areas.

6. Testing:

   • Connect the conductive paths to your microcontroller or circuit. Test the switches to ensure they work correctly.

7. Final Assembly:

   • Once everything is working, finalize the layers and secure them in place. You may want to encase the entire assembly in a protective layer.

Tips

• Use a Multimeter: To test your connections and ensure continuity.
• Experiment: Try different materials and designs to see what works best for your needs.
• Safety First: If using a soldering iron, be cautious and work in a well-ventilated area.

Applications

Membrane switches can be used in various applications, such as:

• Remote controls
• Keypads for appliances
• Control panels for 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
