摘要： A portable information handling system, user interface components thereof, and methods of user control interface and assembly are disclosed. In one embodiment a keyboard assembly, including a large plurality of contacts for a keyboard matrix, connects directly to a palmrest assembly. The palmrest assembly includes a keyboard controller, which decodes keystrokes and then passes the decoded keystrokes to, e.g., an I/O controller on the motherboard of the portable information handling system. This results in greatly improved layout and usage of the motherboard routing spaces, improved reliability, and simplified assembly.

摘要： An input device includes a base. A keycap is coupled to the base by a key guide structure, wherein the keycap defines an aperture. A flexible illumination guide is coupled to the base and is located immediately adjacent the aperture. An illumination device is coupled to the base and is operable to provide illumination through the flexible illumination guide and out of the aperture.

摘要： A low insertion force connector coupling apparatus includes a low insertion force connector body. A cable channel is defined by the low insertion force connector body. A plurality of low insertion force connector contact members are located on the low insertion force connector body adjacent to the cable channel. A cable securing member is located adjacent the cable channel and is operable to engage a cable coupling member on a cable such that a plurality of flat flexible cable contact members on the cable may not be disengaged from the plurality of low insertion force connector contact members without disengagement of the first cable securing member and the cable coupling member.
