Keyboard apparatus and detection method for status of keys thereof
A keyboard apparatus and a detection method for status of keys thereof are provided. The detection method includes the following steps. First lines of a key module in the keyboard apparatus are driven to a first potential. Whether any key on each of second lines in the key module is pressed is detected as a first detection result. The second lines are driven to the first potential. Whether any key on each of the first lines is pressed is detected as a second detection result. One of the first lines is sequentially selected, and a press status of each key on the selected first line is scanned through the second lines so as to generate a coarse scan result. The press status of each key is obtained and whether the press status is misjudged is determined according to the first and the second detection results and the coarse scan result.
