I feel a numeric keypad is specific to a computer keyboard, and is worth its own little article. Keypads cover all sorts of other devices - telephone keypads, calculators, door entry systems... Therefore, I'm against the merge. Davidbod 23:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

The explanation of why telephone keypads and computer/other keypads are different is a little confusing. I don't know enough about this to explain this any better, but someone who does could make this section clearer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.8.232.153 ( talk) 21:35, 13 December 2013 (UTC)
The only telephone a common user might come across is a smartphone. The other keypad most likely is a vending machine or an ATM. The other might be the remote control of their TV or Media equipement. All should be addresses in a similar fasion. Theking2 ( talk) 15:46, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
I noticed https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Keypad&diff=1167955607&oldid=1167954883 removed quite a bit of useful circuit diagrams. I haven't following the edit history of this page, but it seems those circuit diagrams were quite useful, particularly the recent one showing what looks like a Charlieplexing configuration. Edit: I've added Keyboard matrix circuit to the see also section...maybe those diagrams could be moved there and have that article discuss various circuity configurations.
