The Soft Touch Key Pad is a thin “Static” sensitive pad that is adhered to the front protective shield.
The Soft Touch Key Pad requires a static sensitive key press decoder IC to change the key press
data into R2 Ladder (Resistive data) which the Microprocessor can understand. This IC is on the
Front IR board IC100 which receives key press data from P101. The output from this IC simply
selects the appropriate resistor to inject into the Key 1 or Key 2 line which is then interpreted by the
Microprocessor in the Main board IC1.
