Word origin
The term 'keypad' originated from the combination of the words 'key' and 'pad', referring to a set of keys arranged in a pad-like structure. Keypads have been used in various electronic devices for inputting numbers, letters, or other characters. The concept of a keypad dates back to the early 20th century when mechanical devices with key layouts were developed for telecommunication purposes. Over time, keypads evolved into the digital form we see today in modern electronics.
