Title:
KEY MATRIX CIRCUIT DEVICE AND INPUT DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/137984
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides a key matrix circuit device and an input device capable of directly utilizing a power supply voltage that is higher than an upper-limit voltage inputtable into an information processing device. The key matrix circuit device includes: a key matrix including a plurality of switches and a plurality of voltage-dividing resistors connected between a plurality of sense terminals and the plurality of switches; and a wake-up circuit including an output terminal from which is outputted a switching signal causing the information processing device to switch to a power-saving mode or a normal mode, a power supply terminal connected to a power supply, and a connecting terminal connected to the power supply terminal and a plurality of scan terminals, wherein the plurality of voltage-dividing resistors have resistance values that bring the voltages of the plurality of sense terminals connected to a plurality of sense ports of the information processing device down to a prescribed voltage or lower, and if one of the plurality of switches is switched on and the potential of the connecting terminal goes to a first level while the information processing device is in the power-saving mode, the wake-up circuit outputs, from the output terminal, the switching signal for switching to the normal mode.
