Silicone conductive keypad, also known as electrically conductive printing silicone rubber keypad or transfer printing electric conduction keypad, utilizes conductive ink in place of traditional black carbon pills to serve as the electroconductive points. This advanced design enhances the keypad’s performance, offering improved durability, reliability, and resistance to wear while maintaining excellent electrical conductivity. It is widely used in various electronic devices for efficient and long-lasting user interaction.

Disadvantages
The electrically conductive printing ink keypad generally exhibits higher contact resistance compared to the black carbon pill keypad. While the contact resistance of black carbon pill keypads is typically easy to control, staying below 100 ohms—some models even reaching as low as 0-5 ohms—the contact resistance of conductive printing ink keypads is usually around 150 ohms, with some reaching up to 200 ohms.
To reduce the contact resistance of an electrically conductive printing ink keypad, it is necessary to use more conductive materials in the ink, along with precision tooling and improvements in the printing process to ensure an even, high-quality conductive coating. In contrast, black carbon pill keypads are known for their stronger durability. Over time, the conductive ink on elastomeric keypads may degrade, leading to an increase in contact resistance.
To enhance the lifespan of transfer conductive printing keypads, it is important to use high-quality conductive inks and ensure that the conductive coating is thoroughly dried after printing.
