Components of a Control Panel 

A control panel typically has the following basic parts: 

• Sealed graphic overlay with printed text/graphics describing the control panel interactions
• Touch interface to complete circuits
• Printed circuit board (PCB) that processes the signals from the user interface
• LEDs for displays on the user interface
• Connection to drivers, controllers or other PCBs
• EMI / ESD / RFI  shielding options (for electro-magnetic interference, electro-static discharge and radio frequency interference shielding)
• PEM studs, custom mounting hardware or other fasteners to mount the control panel assembly 

Options include: 

• Custom control panel materials – aluminum, steel, or formed plastic
• Panel materials can be anodized, painted, or powder coated
• Custom printing, logos and graphics on the graphic overlay
• Surface texture materials
• Custom shapes
• Back lighting
• Multiple tactile dome options for tactile feedback or non-tactile option
• EMI / ESD / RFI  shielding options (for electro-magnetic interference, electro-static discharge and radio frequency interference shielding)
• Embossing
• Embedded LEDs
• Multiple connector styles
• Normally environmentally sealed to keep incidental dust and moisture out
• Window lens coating
• Many more options are available 

Applications for Control Panels
