Abstract
The present invention discloses a de-bouncing keypad and a preparation method thereof, wherein the keypad is composed of a rubber substrate and a metal contact having three layers of layered structures. A layer of tin alloy or lead alloy is plated on a surface of the metal contact by electroplating or chemical plating. The metal contact plated with the tin alloy or lead alloy has excellent contact bouncing resistance and arc-ablation resistance, and the metal contact is further composited with the rubber to shape and prepare the rubber de-bouncing keypad.
