Features

The keyboard uses a single non-detachable USB-A 2.0 cable. The latency is extremely low with a polling rate of 4000 hz or 0.25ms. This is four times faster than a normal gaming keyboard (1 ms). The cable itself is braided and feels quite thin. Alternative Options EVGA Z20. Established keyboard testing utility KeyboardTest has been used to test and check for faulty keyboards by PC enthusiasts and production line environments (in batch mode testing) since 2003. Illustrator cc for mac os. Although desktop keyboards can be quickly and cheaply replaced, this is not the case for laptop computers where the keyboard is integrated into the computer.

To use this tool, try to press and release a key as quickly as possible. Wilcom embroidery software torrent site. I find flicking the edge of a keycap works well to create very short key presses.

Shortest Key Press	Estimated Scan Rate

Theory

The scan rate of a keyboard measures how frequently the keyboard updates (internally) the state of its key matrix. Normally, the scan rate is limited by the bounce time of the key switches used and the debounce algorithm used. For example, the debounce time of Cherry MX mechanical switches is rated at ≤5ms. So assuming a simple algorithm is used that waits 5ms for a switch signal to stabilize, then the scan rate would be limited to 200Hz.

The idea used here is that the scan rate of the keyboard effectively determines the shortest delay between a key press and a key release. Using this information we estimate the scan rate as: ScanRate = 1 / ShortestKeyHold.

Note that scan rate is not the same as poll rate. On a USB device, poll rate refers to how often the OS will check the USB device for updates. The poll rate together with the scan rate determines the maximum input latency. For example, take the example above were the scan interval is 5ms. If our poll rate is 1000Hz, then the keyboard is polled every 1ms and so the maximal input latency is 1+5=6ms. However, if the scan rate were 100Hz, then the maximal input latency would be 10+5=15ms. Note: It is possible to look up the poll rate of a USB device using software.
