Library for keypad

Please refer this link for more information on the library. The library provides an interrupt-based method to scan the index out of a 4x4 keypad.

How it works

After each key press, a user defined callback function could be called. Inside the callback function, any data processing with input key index can be done. User can write additional code within the callback to block subsequent interrupt.

Sample Code

#include "mbed.h"
#include "keypad.h"

#define       KEYLEN    4
#define       ENDKEY   15
char          Buffer[KEYLEN];
int           Index = 0;

// Define your own keypad values
char Keytable[] = { '1', '2', '3', 'A',
                    '4', '5', '6', 'B',
                    '7', '8', '9', 'C',
                    '*', '0', '#', 'D'
                  };

uint32_t cbAfterInput(uint32_t key) {
    bool      finish = false;
    
    printf("Index:%d => Key:%c\n", Index, Keytable[key]);

    if (Index < KEYLEN - 1)
    {
        if (key != ENDKEY)  // Terminating key
            Buffer[Index] = Keytable[key];
        else // Terminating key is entered
            finish = true;
        Index++;
    }

    if (finish || (Index == KEYLEN - 1)) {
        printf("Complete string = %s\n", Buffer);
        memset(&Buffer, 0, KEYLEN);
        Index = 0;
    }

    return 0;
}

void Sleep(void) {
    __WFI();
}

int main() {
    memset(&Buffer, 0, KEYLEN);
    Index = 0;
    Keypad keypad(p25, p26, p27, p28, p21, p22, p23, p24);
    keypad.CallAfterInput(&cbAfterInput);

    keypad.Start();
    while (1) {
        Sleep();
    }
}
