| - | [* black] Keys |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] The ''key'' components: |
| + | [* black] Key cap |
| + | [* black] Butterfly mechanism—physically stabilizes the thin key cap, ensuring that it travels up and down without wobbling or tilting |
| + | [* black] Plastic/nylon overlay—flexible barrier that allows the keypress force through while keeping contaminants out of the contacts |
| + | [* black] Spring/button—supplies the spring force for the key while also serving as the electrical switch by deforming and bridging the board contacts |
| + | [* black] Board contacts—connecting the central pads with any of the four outer pads signals a keypress |
| + | [* black] Silicone sleeve—provides ingress resistance for the butterfly mechanism to prevent it from being physically jammed |
