C'est un clavier plat. Deux feuilles de plastique de faible épaisseur, les membranes, sont enduites d'un circuit réalisé avec une encre conductrice. Au-dessus des membranes est disposé un panneau sur lequel est imprimée une représentation du clavier. Les deux membranes sont séparées par une cloison percée de trous : un trou en regard de chacun des emplacements des touches sur le panneau imprimé. Lorsqu'on appuie sur un des emplacements de ce panneau représentant une touche, la membrane supérieure est poussée à travers le trou qui correspond à la touche et vient toucher la membrane inférieure à la verticale, réalisant le contact électrique. 5, record 1, French, - clavier%20%C3%A0%20membranes
