These Keypad Matrix use I2C to communicate, 2 pins are required to interface. The Keypad Matrix has an interrupt pin to provide fast detection of changes. This example shows the working of polling.

The 8 keypad pins connected directly to the Arduino pin headers (The choice for the pins is explained in the next section) Optional external pull-up resistors for the row pins (R1, R2, R3, R4) ...

A keypad is one of the most commonly used input devices in microprocessor applications. In a standard keypad wired as an X-Y switch matrix, normally-open switches connect a row to a column when ...
