Description

Character integrated touch typing keyboard

[ technical field ] A method for producing a semiconductor device

The invention relates to a touch typing keyboard.

[ background of the invention ]

At present, a common keyboard, whether a computer keyboard or an input keyboard attached to other digital products, is used. The keys are usually distributed on the front surface of the plate body, namely the front surface of the sight of the operator.

In the case of a general computer keyboard, for example, patent application No. 01123487.3 discloses a general computer keyboard layout method, in which some symbols with low frequency of use are integrated on corresponding letter keys and the positions of function keys are ergonomically arranged, so that the layout of the keyboard is optimized to some extent.

In addition, most digital products have insufficient space when the keyboard is arranged at a position which can be seen on the front side. In order to meet the requirements that a keyboard needs to be in a certain proportional relation with a display screen in product design and the design of a digital product is light, the keyboard arrangement of the digital product is also improved in the prior art, for example, an application with the patent application number of 01142379.X discloses an improvement method of a mobile phone keyboard, and the method is as follows: at least 60% of the number keys on the mobile phone keyboard are integrated and are designed into at least 2 keys with 2-5 contacts. The application solves the problem that the mobile phone keyboard brings inconvenience to users in the process of miniaturization.
