Introduction: Arduino Keypad 4x4 Tutorial

About: Currently am studying in CSE...interested in A.I. and robotics...

Keypad input showed to serial monitor with arduino uno and 4x4 keypad full code...

Supplies

Arduino uno x 1

4x4 Keypad

Step 1: Connecting With Arduino

Connecting keypad with aruduino digital pins:

Keypad Pin Connects to Arduino Pin

1 D9

2 D8

3 D7

4 D6

5 D5

6 D4

7 D3

8 D2

Step 2: Code

CODE :

#include <Keypad.h>

const byte numRows= 4

const byte numCols= 4;

keymap[numRows][numCols]= { {'1', '2', '3', 'A'},

{'4', '5', '6', 'B'},

{'7', '8', '9', 'C'},

{'*', '0', '#', 'D'} };

byte rowPins[numRows] = {9,8,7,6}; //Rows 0 to 3

byte colPins[numCols]= {5,4,3,2}; //Columns 0 to 3

//initializes an instance of the Keypad class

Keypad myKeypad= Keypad(makeKeymap(keymap), rowPins, colPins, numRows, numCols);

void setup() {

Serial.begin(9600);

}

//If key is pressed, this key is stored in 'keypressed' variable //If key is not equal to 'NO_KEY', then this key is printed out //if count=17, then count is reset back to 0 (this means no key is pressed during the whole keypad scan process

void loop() {

char keypressed = myKeypad.getKey();

if (keypressed != NO_KEY)

{

Serial.print(keypressed);

}

}

Step 4: Adding Library

Adding the library :

To add the library go to Skeetches -->>Include library--> Type the libray name "keypad" then press install.Then upload the sketch to your arduino.
