Cherry's color-coding system of categorizing switches has been imitated by other switch manufacturers, such as Gateron and Kailh among many others. [4] [5] Keyboards which utilize this technology are commonly referred to as "mechanical keyboards", but there is not a universally agreed-upon clear-cut definition for this term. [6]

Mechanical keyboards (or mechanical-switch keyboards) are computer keyboards which have an individual switch for each key. The following table is a compilation list of mechanical keyboard models, brands, and series:
In computing, a keyboard controller is a device that interfaces a keyboard to a computer. Its main function is to inform the computer when a key is pressed or released. When data from the keyboard arrives, the controller raises an interrupt (a keyboard interrupt) to allow the CPU to handle the input.
This example shows that three keys, brown, blue and green, have been pressed. A signal path is accurately detected from terminal 1, through the brown switch to terminal 6, indicating that key 1/6 has been pressed. However, the signal also routes through the blue and green switches to terminal 4, falsely indicating that key 1/4 has been pressed.
Typing on a laptop keyboard. A computer keyboard is a built-in or peripheral input device modeled after the typewriter keyboard [1] [2] which uses an arrangement of buttons or keys to act as mechanical levers or electronic switches.
Unicomp Model M with removed z key. The exposed buckling spring is visible. A buckling spring is a type of keyswitch mechanism, popularized by IBM's keyboards for the PC, PC/AT, 5250/3270 terminals, PS/2, and other systems. It was used by IBM's Model F keyboards (for instance the AT keyboard), and the more common Model M.
EMS-1 (The ITEC Electronic Modular Switch is an electronic direct control switching system. The modules are combined to form a complete switch or any of the modules can be added to your present Step-by-Step Systems.) EMS-2 (The EMS-2 RURAL SWITCH is a stored program control analog switch designed to be cost-effective in small exchanges.
