Also prone to “shine” (from contact with oils in skin) and yellowing with prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light. ABS – Short for Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, ABS plastic is the most widely used material for keycap construction.80% – Occasionally used to reference TKL (TenKeyLess) keyboards.Example: Drevo Gramr 75% Mechanical Keyboard This layout also prohibits the use of a complete standard sized key set. Due to key placement in this form factor, 75% boards are actually smaller than 65% in length. A layout for users wanting a board more compact than a TKL while still retaining dedicated arrow and F-keys. 75% – This form factor fits in dedicated arrow keys, the function row and a selection of navigation/arrow keys into as small of a footprint as possible.Many older keyboards are limited to 2KRO. 6-key rollover is common over modern USB connected mechanical keyboards. 6KRO – 6KRO or 6-key rollover is the amount of keys on a keyboard than can be pressed at the same time (which is actually 6 letter keys + 4 modifiers with 6KRO) without exhibiting problems such as blocking.Example: Magicforce 68 65% Mechanical Keyboard
#CLICKY VS TACTILE SWITCHES PRO#
Example: Obins Anne Pro 60% Wireless Mechanical Keyboard Possible to have all keys be standard size if dedicated arrow keys aren’t included. 60% – Compact form factor that drops the numpad, navigation and F1-F12 keys.Example: Vortex CORE 40% Mechanical Keyboard Some keys will be of a non-standard size. Many standard key operations will be hidden under multiple function layers. 40% – Extremely small form factor with only the bare minimal of dedicated keys required to function.The purpose of this glossary is to provide a quick, easy way to find definitions for the terms you don’t know and expand your mechanical keyboard vocabulary. As with most hobbies, the terminology can be confusing and it continues to evolve as the hobby grows. There are certain words, phrases and acronyms used by mechanical keyboard enthusiasts that will leave the average person who’s unfamiliar with the subject scratching their head.
