KEYMODULE
Keymodule ML
Features
The Cherry ML keymodule is a mechanical switching element using singlegap make contact element in Gold-Crosspoint contact technology. Its comfortable actuation makes the module particulary suitable for low-cost construction of keyboards and keypads with great diversity and very low height.
A multitude of different key cap shapes allows flexible designs. Very short
bounce time, reliable stroke, excellent tactile feeling and enormous costsaving pave the way for a wide range of applications.
