Abstract

A keypad assembly includes a support member, a key switch, a key cap and a resilient member. The key switch is located on the support member, and has a contact portion. The key cap is located opposite to the contact portion. The resilient member includes a rotation portion and a resilient support portion. The rotation member rotatably interconnects the key cap and the support member. The resilient support portion is connected to the rotation member, and resists the support member. The resilient support portion is deformed by resisting the support member when the key switch is untouched, such that the resilient member provides a elastically restorable force to the rotation portion. There is no gap between the key cap and the contact portion because of the deformation of the resilient member, thus the keypad assembly has a preferable handle. The invention also provides an electronic device using the keypad assembly.
