Abstract: A keyboard for use with a data processing display terminal utilizing a cathode ray tube (CRT) display is provided from which information bearing electromagnetic radiations are suppressed using solid state keyboard switches having no contact bounce and generating low level signals with few transients, metallic oxide silicon (MOS) semiconductor circuitry having relatively low switching speeds to generate few transients, careful packaging of components to minimize printed circuit path and wiring lengths, ferrite beads on component leads to suppress transient generation, and shielding of printed circuit paths by sandwiching them between ground planes.
