ABSTRACT:
A keyboard assembly having a housing with one or more openings in which keys are located. A circuit board is located inside the housing and adjacent to the keys such that striking the keys causes switches of the circuit board to be switched. A liquid resistant barrier is located between the keys and the circuit board, protecting the circuit board and/or other electronic components from being contacted by liquids spilled on the keyboard.
