A keyboard device includes a substrate, a connection hook, a keycap, and a connecting member. The substrate has a top surface including an assembly area. The connection hook is disposed on the assembly area and includes a fixed seat fixed on the substrate, a standing portion, and a reinforcement block. The standing portion is extending from the fixed seat and extending in a direction away from the fixed seat. A hook portion is laterally extending from a top end of the standing portion, the hook portion has a bottom edge. The reinforcement block is connected to the standing portion and the bottom edge. The keycap is disposed on the assembly area. The connecting member is connected between the keycap and the assembly area. The connecting member includes a shaft slidably pivoted at the bottom edge. An inner side of the shaft includes an avoidance groove corresponding to the reinforcement block.

Electrodes and regions of top plate opposed to electrodes constitute switches that have capacitances varying when the regions of top plate are depressed from top plate toward electrodes. Depression detection circuit calculates the capacitance change amounts of switches indicating changes of the capacitances from a reference value. Depression detection circuit calculates the maximum value and sum of the capacitance change amounts of switches. When the capacitance change amount of at least one switch exceeds threshold and a situation in which the ratio of the maximum value to the sum is equal to or greater than threshold has lasted for the number of repetitions in, depression detection circuit determines that the switch having the maximum value of the capacitance change amount is in a depressed state.

A keyboard includes a substrate, a limit connecting member, a keycap, and a liftable connecting member. The assembly area of the substrate includes a long fixation hole having two short sides, a first long side, and a second long side. A portion of the bottom surface of the substrate is further recessed to form a long bottom groove, and two ends of the long bottom groove are near to the two short sides. The limit connecting member is disposed on the assembly area and includes a fixed seat in the long fixation hole and a standing portion extending from the fixed seat. The fixed seat includes a lower wing plate correspondingly fixed in the long bottom groove. The keycap is disposed on the assembly area. The liftable connecting member is connected between the keycap and the assembly area and includes a shaft disposed on the limit connecting member.

Apparatuses and systems that include a keyboard baseplate including a concave structure with a logic substrate housed therein are disclosed. One apparatus includes a keyboard baseplate including a concave structure formed thereon and a lower surface having a side. The apparatus further includes a logic substrate provided on the side of the lower surface of the baseplate and housed within the concave structure.
