Abstract

The data input device comprises several keys which are arranged over at least two lines. A unidirectional position detector is associated with each line of keys and each unidirectional position detector comprises a first input connection, a second input connection and an output connection. The output connections of the unidirectional position detectors are connected at different locations to a first ohmic resistor. In addition, the first input connections are connected to a first terminal of the data input device and the second input connections are connected to a second terminal of the data input device.
