Product description: NeoKey Socket Breakout - module with a slot for a mechanical switch - NeoPixel - Adafruit 5756
The NeoKey Socket Breakout is a small PCB designed for use with compatible Kailh CHOC switches . Allows you to easily connect the switch to a breadboard or universal board . There is a 1N4148 pulse diode on the board, which prevents the ghosting effect of keys in the matrices. The board is also equipped with a reversely mounted NeoPixel diode that lights up in the switch. The board has two rows of 5-pin sets that require soldering to connect them to the breadboard. The kit does not include a CHOC switch and must be purchased separately. The device is not compatible with Cherry MX buttons.
