Figure 37: Traditional keypad reference circuit
Note: According to the traditional 5*5 keypad matrix, when there are unused KBCs or KBRs, user can execute
AT command to define unused KBCs and KBRs as GPIO, for details please see the document [1].
Module supports a new keypad connection, it can support 5*5*2 amount 50 keypads, meet full keyboard demand,
and the connection diagram is as follow:

Figure 38: Extended keypad reference circuit
Note: Do not change the 20K
Ω resistor in the diagram.
Customer should add a resistor to enhance the ESD performance and the value of resistor should be less than 1K
Ω,
the connection diagram is shown in figure 41 as an example.
