Abstract

A keyboard scanning circuit includes a plurality of switching elements, M scanning lines and N sensing lines. Each of the sensing lines has a common node extended to M transmission lines. A switching element is coupled where one of the transmission lines and one of the scanning lines intersects. Two scanning lines correspondingly coupled through two switching elements to two transmission lines extended from one sensing line are different from each other.
