What Is Dome Sheets & LGF?
Dome Sheets & LGF (Light Guide Film) solutions represent a significant evolution beyond standard metal domes. This technology integrates a reliable Metal Dome Sheet with a precision light guide layer into a single, unified LGF Dome Sheet module. This innovative approach solves key design challenges—such as uneven backlighting, complex assembly, and increased thickness—associated with traditional backlit buttons. An LGF metal dome array delivers both crisp tactile feedback and perfectly uniform illumination, making it the ideal choice for modern interfaces where user experience and aesthetics are paramount.

자주 묻는 질문
Q1: What is the main advantage of an LGF Dome Sheet over a traditional backlit keypad assembly?
A: The key advantage is integration and performance. A traditional assembly stacks separate components (LEDs, light guide plate, rubber dome, metal dome), leading to potential alignment issues, light loss, and greater thickness. An LGF metal dome array integrates the light guide and switch into a single, thin film, guaranteeing superior backlight uniformity, a slimmer profile, and simpler, more reliable assembly.
Q2: Does integrating the light guide affect the tactile feel of the Metal Dome Sheet?
A: Not at all. The tactile response is solely determined by the performance of the precision-engineered metal snap dome. The light guide layer is designed to coexist without interfering with the dome’s operation, ensuring you receive both perfectly even illumination and a crisp, consistent tactile click.
Q3: Can LGF Dome Sheets support dynamic lighting effects like RGB or animation?
A: Yes. By designing independent optical channels and zones within the LGF Dome Array, and pairing it with a compatible LED driver circuit, we can achieve dynamic lighting effects including multi-color RGB, breathing patterns, and sequential illumination.
Q4: Are these Dome Sheets & LGF solutions suitable for waterproof designs?
A: Absolutely. The LGF Dome Sheet module itself, being a flat film circuit, is inherently easier to seal than mechanical buttons. Using full lamination bonding, perimeter gaskets, or other sealing techniques, end products can readily achieve high ingress protection ratings like IP68.
Q5: What is required to start a custom LGF Dome Sheets project?
A: To begin, we primarily need:
1) Your panel layout and industrial design, specifying desired lit areas and effects;
2) Backlight performance goals (brightness, color, LED specifications);
3) Tactile requirements (actuation force and travel for each key);
4) Environmental specs (operating temperature, required IP rating).
We will then provide a complete solution from optical simulation to functional prototypes.
