ADI Global Distribution is the industry’s leading global distributor of security, AV, and low-voltage products.For more than 25 years, professional contractors, dealers and installers have relied on ADI for products and solutions as well as knowledge and support for projects and value-added services like industry training. You can use analog keys to control the speed and direction of a mouse cursor and a mouse scroll wheel. You can control variable MIDI musical devices, manipulate 3D CAD objects, a jog wheel, volume control, or anything that requires a little more finesse than a strict on/off digital key press. Battery, analog: Up to 4 350 Ω load cells, 5V Excitation Keypad 8 function keys, 4 navigation keys, 12-key alphanumeric keypad, On/Off button Memory Battery-backed internal Communication Options Standard COM1 RS-232, isolated Option Slot 1 COM2 RS-232/485, isolated COM2 + D I/O RS-232/485, isolated + 2 inputs and 4 outputs (analog version only).

Here is my circuit design for Arduino keypad, using only 1 analog pin (instead of 7 serial pins), 6 resistors (can be reduced to 5) and 1 capacitor:

I decided it’s time to add a keypad to my Arduino playground. Usually, those simple keypads come with 7 pins (actually 9, but 2 are not connected to anything on 3×4 keypads) which are connected to Arduino like this:

I wanted to use less pins as possible, so I thought of getting 74hc165, but then I decided it’s time for a new challenge – resistors, and I went with something more like this:

As you can see it this diagram (and others found on the web), one can connect his keypad via 1 analog pin, using allkindof resistors schemes. I decided to build my own with the resistors I already have at home. My 1st setup worked fine, but resistors differentiation wasn’t enough and 2 keys (1 and 5) were showing same value when pressed. So I went along and fixed that, and the working result is the 1st diagram you saw in this post. Final shopping list follows:
